Patience, Omer, patience! It took me a good 6 months to get where I am now, even with the help of metformin to lower my insulin resistance. You're doing okay. Onwards and downwards . . .

Hi, Omer your doing okay.
I have been with high BS since dec 2009 and still stuck with them even now!
Insulin increased and antibiotics whoop! up they stay... 13.4 this morn.
When will they start to behave? O dear... :roll:
I didnt dare say earlier but since seeing omers post this 'should' reassure him.
Anna.

5.8 Fasting (back into the 5s again - I'm pleased)
6.5 @2hours (after breakfast of tropical fruit 60g = 6g carbs and greek joghurt 6.5g carbs so I guess that was to be expected)

How to make yourself even more miserable... 
Lucky you've already tested.
5.3 is great. Don't test afterwards :shock:

- Customer helplines that use recorded menus that promise to put me through to the right person but never do - and being ill. Oh, and did I mention customer helplines :)
Great nights kip last night, no back pain and no leg pains so tested this morning 5.6 mmol/L. The last few fasting tests I have done have all been 6.1 mmol/L to 6.3 mmol/?.
What a difference a good nights sleep can make

9.0 and I've posted a question on another section regarding my readings each time I woke up last night.
My liver seems to just dump throughout the night...(this may explain my poor sleep patterns).

5.8 again this morning, at 07:45 - no coffee this time! I'm eating too much fruit - over yesterday afternoon & evening I had 1 nectarine, 3 apricots, 3 greengages, a fresh fig (mmmmm!) and strawberries, blueberries & cream! . That's about 60g of carb in total :shock:
However, I think my summer fruit binge is nearly over, and I shall get back on the straight-and-narrow shortly. I'm quite pleased with my levels at the moment, though - always in the 5s or lower these days, which is a great improvement!
