I don't think...

The actos is helping, I think it's actually causing my BG to go higher.

I know it's only been a few days that I've been taking it... but I really think it's causing me to have higher blood sugars. This morning my BS was at 160. I took my meds (500mg metformin, 2.5mg of glyburide and 15mg of actos) Then for breakfast I had a small bowl of organic cereal (total carbs with the 2% milk = 55 grams). Three hours later my BG = 293!

I have called my doctor to see what he thinks, but I don't think I should take the actos anymore.
