Talk to your Dr. about getting a prescription for a Freestyle Libre 2 or Dexcom setup. Even if your insurance doesn't cover it. This is a total gamechanger when it comes to monitoring your blood glucose. You can essentially eliminate finger sticks and can check your glucose every 5 minutes if you so desire. I've helped numerous patients implement it over the last few years and all saw an amazing turnaround in their A1C because they were better able to monitor how different foods were affecting their glucose levels.
I believe that and supposedly the Apple Watch will have that function. If not I’ll probably bite the bullet. The last several month endocrinologist changed my meds and my morning fasting blood sugar went up. Was running 140-160 depending. Now 200 give or take. I was eating sweets still with tryjardy but have cut all that out with trulicity and synjardy combo that was bumped up to next dosage. Wondering what the heck.
Was gonna talk to my GP but he’s out on medical leave right now.
