  • What’s going on???

    Hi,

    I’m kind of new to this @ 2+ months since DX w/T2 and I have a question. I had to get up a little earlier for work this AM and when I tested I was 62. I didn’t eat right away but tested to see how it would go. 20 min after the 62 I tested at 88. 25min later I was up to 104 and I had breakfast. 40 min after the start of breakfast I came down a bit to 101. My FBG is typically 85-103.

    What I want to know is about the drop to 62 during sleep. Is there something I can do to keep that from happening? I may have been even lower than that but I just don’t know. I had a similar low 60’s BG one other time that I woke up a little earlier than usual. I am currently on Metformin ER 500mg x 2 daily. Any other concerns or advice would be welcome.

    Thanks,

    Tom

    Hi everybody!

    Diagnosed T2 in beginning of Oct ’09 w/A1c 6.8. Currently on Metformin ER 500mg x 2 daily. Presently attending Diabetes training classes with 2 of 3 completed. BG is pretty good with some bumps in the road now and then but getting better & more consistant every week. Looks like this site has quite a bit to offer!
