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

We carnt advise you to stop them but whatever your decision it is the right one for you. Give them a last chance then make a decision?
Not all meds agree but some have alternatives. I bet some don't.
I regret not giving victoza a better chance. It helped my weight but no change to my bgs. The nauseous feelings didn't feel right for my body.
I'm sure you'll decide soon. :-)
 
My first day of testing.... 6.7 on waking, but then rose even further to 7.3 by mid morning. I don't eat breakfast, so those levels were 12 and 15 hours after eating. Very confusing.

Thanks, I've just read this link. But I don't understand how I can stop it happening. Will it get better as my control improves?

Hi @TooManyCrisps
I'm led to believe it's normal. Even none diabetics get it.
Obviously the bg being high anyway the dawn phenomenon takes it a bit higher which most type 2s carnt afford.
The aim is to have the best first morning bg reading as you can get. Other than hypo level. To give your system the best result at the start of your day.
I hope this makes sense. :)
