Despite all my best efforts I often register readings in the high teens. Whats the best way to lower them? Run round the block a couple of times or take a dose of insulin?
There is no quick fix for diabetes. If you are overweight you must diet. If tablets aren't working then insulin comes on the scene. What meds are you on?
Look at your diet first. Insulin shouldn't really compensate for high sugar/carbs. Not saying your diet is bad but it could need adjusting prior to just increasing meds. Exercise will certainly help though.
