I was diagnosed with type 2 in january but with diet managed to get my HBa1c down to 5.2 which went up to 6.4 last month but last night my readings were 19/20.

I have never seen readings over 11 before. This morning it was 16.6 when it is never more than 6

Readings are now down to about 7.5

I'm slightly concerned
 
Hi @Evelina69 , Welcome to the forums.

I assume it's safe to conclude that you have not changed your diet in any way.

Has anything else changed, illness, activity levels?
 
Have you changed meters, or opened a new box of strips ?

My readings have been haywire since I opened a new box.
