[QUOTE="Granny_grump_, post: 2500715, member: 282121"] Good Morning Everyone BG this morning was again in 7s @7.8mmol Despite following Krystyna 23040 advice of staying in 20 grams carbs yesterday, now I’m not looking for instant results but 7.8 is one of my highest BG readings, I found my Carbs and Cals book I’d forgotten I had this book so I can look up every carb in all foods so I absolutely know what the carb levels are in all my meals yesterday and I know it’s not reducing my carbs that’s raised my BG but the higher BG readings are baffling. I’m not sick and don’t have any infections, I’m back on allergy meds at this time of year and vitamin B3 recently given me by doctor has this was low and Frusomide to keep my ankles from swelling. Anybody know if my medication can cause raised BG I really don’t want to be taking BG reducing medication anymore it didn’t suit me it caused hypos that’s why doctor asked me to come off them. Carbs totalled 12grams yesterday 10 in evening meal and 2 in lunch the 10 was 2 Lincolnshire sausage these are the 10 gms carbs with egg and 2 rashers of bacon, and the 2 was in the Caesar dressing in my chicken salad at lunchtime Breakfast was Greek yogurt and berries has usual and a cup coffee. I will persevere to see how it goes, can I ask [USER=374421]@Krystyna23040[/USER] when you reduced your carbs to 20gms are you still taking your insulin, I was put on Gliclizide a month ago but doctor has asked me to stop taking them so not had any for 2 days now.
