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

[Rie26]

Gliclazide is a powerful drug indeed. Compared to metformin it is well worth watching regarding hypos. Have fallen foul of gliclazide myself and so i know very well what it can do. When put on gliclazide Drs and DN’s generally throw glucose meters at patientd for good reason, or they should do

Are you on gliclazide now? Thankfully my DN wouldn't let me start the drug without a machine. I'm only on 20mg 4 days a week at the moment...which is good as when this drug eventually stops working I will have to go onto insulin.

Morning all, 5.9 at 4.45!! Way to early for me, in fact I'm not even sure if it is me! I seem to have been awake since 2.30. Have a long drive home today, so hopefully I will be able to get a bit of sleep before I get up. Have a good day, wrap up warm, it's very cold outside.

Morning...off to work today in London...the joys of the A1(M) & the M25...still better than sitting at home twiddling my thumbs...enjoying a little bit of peace & quiet before the mayhem begins...and of course my first cup of coffee...woke to a 5.3
