I've been steadily increasing my dosage every few months and am up to 10mg now. He told me that I wouldn't need to check my glucose more than once a day which signi
1/ yes, I know, there's room for improvement. That's always going to be true. I'm okay with being a work in progress. :) 2/ I started off 14++ earlier this year and my PCP stressed the need for a gentle slope of reduction in sugars so complications wouldn't plague me as much. 3/ I started off with
January 31, I had an A1c of 12.4. My endo wanted to start me on insulin, but I decided I was going to try to take control of the factors that I knew I was not paying attention to.
