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

12.2 this morning (and 17.2 at a random point in the afternoon). Got in touch with my GP and he's increased my Glimepiride to max dosage too. So, now on 45mg Pioglitazone and 4mg Glimepiride. Hoping for better numbers shortly (normally in the 8s and 9s, which isn't great, but I'd take that now).

Unfortunately, the body adapts to the continued presence of a drug and IME switching to an alternative seldom proceeds smoothly
at first.

Hope the current regimen helps and your BG readings start to improve.
