Reading

Ive just found out about having type 1.

Ive just done a reading as i feel light headed again. It was 3.9mmol. I dont know what to do as im not on correct meds.

I had porridge made with water (yuk) with a few summer fruits in for breakfast.

I felt light headed as soon as i stood up after sitting for ten mins. Ive felt like this in the past before i was diagnosed and i used to just buy a bar of chocolate and i was ok.

Less glucose altering meds can hold the answer for type2s.

Could that be a blood pressure issue? BP can drop in those circumstances.

Which is what the body does with low bgs, from my experience.
Low bgs on too much meds can be tweaked before blood pressure tablets need tweaking. Everyone experiences minor low or high blood pressure, that's normal. Its when its a permanent high or low med changes need considering by a medic. Not us.

Wow. And you were using gliclizide which forces your Insulin production more.
Have they stopped it immediately?
