Hi Carole your more then welcome this place is here and the people in it whenever you need us x
 
Hope the new meds help bring your numbers down. Most GP surgeries are pretty good at calling people for the relevent tests as they get points which = money for doing them.

Ok I recently did a course and was told if you look out for the stonebaked bread or the seeded bread then that was better then wholemeal, just a suggestion.Pleased your now having breakfast though it sets you up for the day.x

You definetly need to read the three links i posted to you in your newbies thread on the Introduce yourself board.
You should aim to be under 6 before breakfast - what the heck are you eating at night ?

it may not be the food thats causing the problem here. There could be many other issues.

Carolean has been to the doctors and got help, numbers already seem better. Keep at it girl :D

so happy you are okay we were worried about you 🙂
 
Well done Carole, I think you will start to feel better once the new meds kick in. Your doing brilliantly considering you were left to your own devices and not given proper support. You should be very proud of yourself for trying to get on top of things. Your diet looks fine to me - you dont seem to eat a lot of junk and you keep your carbs on the lower side - which is great. I think you will do great things once your on top of all this.🙂Bev x
 
Well done Carole so good to hear theres been improvements, you will start to feel a whole lot better now you have had some care and attention x
 
started on the three glimepride this morning and have just had a reading of 6.3 im realy happy now as i didnt think i would ever get them down.
Carole
 
WOOOOOOPEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! I am so pleased for you - I am sure you will start feeling a lot better now.🙂Bev
 
That is great news, the tablets really seemed to have helped. You must feel so much better. Remember to always get onto your Dr's early as possible when things are not going right.
 
Well iv'e been on the 4mg glimepiride for a few weeks now,i started out quite well,but i have had a tough couple of weeks,i went down with a cold and for the last week i have had a tooth abcess, numbers havent been perfect but still a lot better then they was.
Tested 30 minutes ago they was 18.6 highest they have been since starting on the glimepiride.
