[QUOTE="DCUKMod, post: 2122643, member: 345386"] I'm not and never have been a smoker, so couldn't comment, using any personal experience, however, if I were to speculate, I'd guess your levels have gone up as your body transitions from old habits. I'll then add the caveat that 12 weeks is a relatively lengthy transitional period. Were I to have a second guess, I might think you could be eating very slightly differently, or sleeping less well, say? In terms of additional meds; there's no shame in taking meds, and going onto something to support you through this period doesn't necessarily mean you're on it forever. I'd tend to take your approach of looking at your A1c done next week, then decide. Good luck with it all. It's almost certainly one of the best things you will have done, in terms of your overall health. A big well done. If it takes a little extra support to transition over, don't be too heroic in your approach to it. [/QUOTE]
