[QUOTE="golfer24271003, post: 852196, member: 176522"] Hi my bloods go up and down like a yo yo it have to test 4 times a day before breakfast before lunch before dinner and before going to bed. I take insulin and metformin tabs 3 times a day before meals if I don't eat my bloods go down if it goes below 5 I start to get the effects of a hypo and have to eat something sweet some days my levels for no reason zoom up to 16 to 18 I have tried explaining this to the hospital but as usual they don't care unless you have a major hypo or you blood go to high that you go into a coma. I have numoius other things wrong with me so I have to live each day at a time which is hard. [/QUOTE]
