Type 2s: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning? (very low chat level)

9.0 today. Less than 20g carbohydrates yesterday and didn't over do the protein. I am finding these high fasting levels frustrating to say the least...

hey , well yes that must be frustrating... if I were you I´d try metformin, but maybe you have already been there... it helps by slowing the livers transformation of protein into glucose..

6.8 this morning. Newly diagnosed 3 weeks ago. First time I have had a number beginning 6!!! Awful headache though.
Welcome. A good place to be if afflicted with diabetes. Sorry about the head.

Thanks @Freema I have never been prescribed any medication but I am seeing a nurse at my practice on 4th February so I will ask.
 
Well done. You deserve the excellent new hba1c number @callyandy
