Hi, I had type 2 for over a year now, and had to go for yearly check up last week and my hba1c had gone up loads , so the DN and doctor prescibed Glyclizade and gave me 2 monitors(1 large and 1 mini) and a prescription for strips and lancets. I seem to be in a good area for care.Got 2nd telephone appointment tommorrow by the doc to see how I'm gettting on with Glyclizade, I might ask him about low carb diet and see what he says. Fingers crossed
