Hi Everyone,
I was diagnosed back in 2002 with Type 2 Diabetes. Today I have had my annual checkup and came out of there shocked. I called in at reception first and they told me all was normal. I then went into see the Diabetic Nurse who informed me my Blood Sugar levels were too high at 7.1???????????????? She wants them below 6.8. I thought the correct levels were between 4.7 and 7.7. She then decided to put me on Metformin and asked why I had never been given this alongside the Glimepiride I am taking. She is a new nurse and this is the first time I have met or seen her. I have looked on this site and seem to be well within the boundaries they have written down.
Any suggestions out there would be gratefully received as I am feeling very confused.com.
