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

10.0 this morning. Doctor says to stop metformin as liver numbers have increased.
Seeing endocrinologist tomorrow. He warned me I may have to start insulin.
I am gutted.

@PenguinMum .I think the only thing that will make things better is if they let me go back on linagliptin.fbg is higher,pre meal is higher and post meal not coming down like it used to.Appointment Jan 9th with Dn.(the nice one)

Hope she / he listens to you . I've just thought about " he " I've never heard of any male DN 's .

Now on penicillin for sinusitis.

The infection may well be the reason for higher BG. Take care. X

6.2 this morning so slightly down on yesterday. Not quite a trend but hope it continues. Of course, saying that out loud I've probably put the kybosh on things.

7.8 - Not happy, but the science doesn't lie. I'm drawing a line under this Festive Season. I'm still feeling great after my long haul from the surgery. Much to be very grateful for, with the Army of NHS professionals looking after me.

Had a brilliant week, hitting my lowest ever readings, and finding consistency in regularly achieving low BG scores for the very first time.

Morning All
Mixed fortunes here today as often happens. Hugs to those who need them.
This morning I’m 7.8 after only remembering after making tea and feeding the felines but tbh it wasn’t going to be great anyway. @RosemaryJackson sorry you’re having such a tough time and am hoping for some relief for you. @Estragon I know you will be fine and back in that Hive. @flonvic hope you got a chance to talk it through and you’re satisfied with the new regime thats all that matters. Another soggy day so decorating the tree day. Take care everyone.
