Hi I would appreciate any advice
I recently have been diagnosed with the above - my hba1c is 81
Prescription for 500mg metformin 2 x day
Blood sugars reduced from 27 to 24. However tonight meter was reading Hi twice so I drink more water and did it again 1/3 hour later and now it is 32.4
Should I be concerned and should I do anything before Monday? I am so thirsty but as soon as water is drunk it is waiting to leave at the other end of the station!!!
I know the basics as have been a member on here because of hubbys diabetes (type 2)
But this is all a new game for me and I don’t think his sugars have ever been this high not that it’s a competition I want to win.
Thanks for reading x
