[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 2217745, member: 41816"] Those are some impressive changes Roscoe, well done. The new lower levels are likely to make you feel weird until you get used to them, but please do keep checking your blood glucose every time you feel like that. Since you are on Gliclazide, which is a blood glucose lowering medication, there is a risk that the tablets (combined with your new lower carb eating) could take your blood glucose down into a hypo. Did your nurse or doc explain to you what to do if that happens? Are you carrying hypo treatment glucose in case it happens? And if your bg gets to the point where it is consistently low enough, and your medication is pushing you into hypo territory, may I suggest that you go back to your doc to discuss reducing your medication?
