Not a question any of us can answer, I'm afraid. We're all different.
Have you compared your postprandial readings? These tend to improve more quickly than FBG.
 
Morning all, BG a consistent 6.6 again this am.

But I’ve had raging toothache all night and my blood pressure is in my boots 115/68. Another trip to the dentist coming up. Not sure what I can do about the BP, it’s been much lower since I went on Metformin. I should be delighted but I feel like rubbish when it’s that low.

BG 7.1
I sympathise with the pain :arghh: I’ve had earache for 3 days and the pain is going into my jaw. I’m applying otex 3 times a day and hope it clears without me calling the doctor.
Hope you get your tooth sorted.
