I'm a type 2, I take 2 metformin and 2 glipizide first thing in the morning and the same with my dinner.
I also inject 20 unit of insulin last thing at night.
Since I've been on this regiem, I test 4 times a day.
First thing, before lunch, before dinner and last thing at night.
I'm quite happy with the test results apart from the before lunch one.
My 7 day averages are - first thing 6.4
before lunch 8.3
before dinner 5.2
last thing 5.5
I have cheese for breakfast and occasionally an oatcake as well
This morning I had cheese at 7:30 and 1 oatcake (3.6 g of carb) at 8:30 - so why was my before lunch reading 10.2? especially as I'm feeling starving :shock:
I know about the dawn effect but I seem to be suffering from the late morning effect
Suggestions to get that figure down please
Should I be having more for breakfast?
