What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

For years fasting 5 to 6. Then my meds changed by surgery and it creased to 9.9 to 11.3. they stopped 2x10mg gliclazide with 3 X 500mg Metformin a month ago and replaced with 1x10mg dapagliflozin and 2x500mg Metformin since increased to 3x500 Metformin. Reason being they wanted to reassess all on gliclazide.
Reported rise in fasting level and told by doctor that I shouldn't be testing, they would do nothing until after HBa1c test late January 24. Very rude about my testing and what they said to inaccuracy of prick testing.
Am very disturbed by response and worried and rise in glucose levels being caused by playing with meds.
Type 2 diabetes since 1985.

Morning all. 8.1. Surely it couldn't be the very thin slice of granddaughter's chocolate birthday cake? Or could it be the after effects (aching and feeling bruised) from Thursday's treatment)?

Morning all - My FBG was 4.8 this morning but on the libre was 5.9 - I'm usually in the 6 to 8 range - It may have been something to do with the bottle of red wine that somehow got drunk last night.

Another high reading. 7.0. I am worried about my pancreas.
I have an MRI on Monday specifically to look at the dilated pancreatic ducts….I googled it, not good. My fingers are crossed it’s just scar tissue causing the problem. I’m truly scared.
