I am frequently getting levels above 18. Have spoken to my nurse who says although dka not likely in type two it is possible so I should test when levels are high. He has given me 10 testing strips. In the last two weeks I have tested 3 times and all is fine. I have woken this morning at 19.4. I feel thirsty and a bit tired but otherwise fine. I feel testing would a waste of a strip! Do I need to test if I feel ok?
I am speaking to the nurse next week, if I can get an appointment as I am worried that my levels are still that high. I doubled my gliclazide to 160mg daily but it doesn’t seem to have made much difference!
Thank you for any advice anyone can give.
