hi I'm new here and was diagnosed type2 August 16
My average three month reading was 13
By xmas it went down to 11
My last reading was back up to 13
I've been taking metoformin twice a day 500mg
The last few months my diets been poor
I've lost 3 stone and am trying to be more active though at times feel lethargic
My doctors now added gliclazide
My questions at this time are can I substitute the tablets for a low carb diet and exercise
If so how much exercise,
Im feeling too dependant on the meds and I can feel up or down either way
I feel I need to take control
Can anyone share their experiences or,uch needed. Advice
