[QUOTE="JohnJ, post: 891504, member: 33788"] I was reduced to to Metformin and as many say – no need to test. I have needle phobia, so great, I thought so I stopped testing. After a couple of months I felt bit unwell, tested and reading of 22! Back to 2000mg of Metformin and 160mg Gliclazide per day, so do keep testing. Our disease is progressive therefore it is going to change!? I am lucky that my surgery provides testing strips and appears to be more advanced than some, they even promote diabetes.co.uk [/QUOTE]
