[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 2344206, member: 196898"] I was a relapsed T2 6 years ago. My bgl was hitting the ceiling (32+)= HI or KETONES depending on which meter I used. Went LC but not keto immediately, and it took me about a month to get back down to sensible morning readings. I am fine now last HbA1x was 40, still not keto, but can do it if necessary. As has been said, Metformin takes a few weeks to build up, and even the only gives a couple of mmol/l drop at best. LC will give you better results. Some meters can take ketone test strips to turn them into ketone meters, Results under 4 or 5 are nutritional ketosis and no problems, above 5 starts to get needing medical review. [/QUOTE]
