[QUOTE="Brodiebear, post: 1958381, member: 101528"] Nearly had a coronary when I checked this morning 18.6!! ***, usually around 8-10 so this is a big jump and I have also been prescribed an increase in my Gliclazide(about 4 weeks ago), so was hoping it would go down . I have also been started on Atorvastatin for my Cholesterol, but have read that "It's possible your [B]blood [/B]sugar ([B]blood glucose[/B]) level may [B]increase [/B]when you take a [B]statin[/B], which may lead to developing type 2 diabetes" OR it could also be stress from worrying if I got zapped on the M1 at midnight coming home from Sheffield. :-) TBF to my Diabetes doctor, she did say we needed to get my cholesterol and BP under control as well as my diabetes and treat them all as one issue.
