You need see your Diabetic Care Team for review.  I take 850mg three times daily plus other diabetic tablets in achieving control.On Oranges - I have been taking one orange plus 1 apple (or some red & green grapes) daily after lunch with my diabetic medications for almost 20 years of being a diabetic and I achieve good control.Yes, it spikes the blood glucose but if you  take mild exercise daily before supper it will crash down to below 8.1mmol/L (145mg/dL). Vitamin C in fruits is healthy and necessary in a diabetic diet despite the dilemma of spiking the blood sugar but exercise will jack it down.</blockquote>
