[QUOTE="Sugarless Keith, post: 275912, member: 37547"] Borofergie Thanks for all of your advice, I rang my surgery and spoke to the Diabetic Nurse, explained what was happening and her response was "I'll pop a meter in reception for you to pick up and I've changed your prescription to add the strips and lancets on" To say I was impressed was an understatement........in fairness she did mention that in her experience the majority of type 2's say the right things when they come for the check-ups but don't actually do much about it so she seemed happy I was getting to grips with it. Used the meter this morning and found my readings to be 5.2 first thing in morning then 3.8 2 hours after breakfast (bacon and eggs, no carbs) and a 3 mile walk with the dog. She did say if it was below 4 to stop taking the lunch time Metformin so I'm down to 2 a day now. I'm going to a lot more reading on this but you've very helpful, good luck with the training for the marathon. :clap: [/QUOTE]
