| Well, I have been on Glimepiride now for about a week and I see absolutely no difference. My fasting blood sugar levels are still about 180 and after meals which include maybe one serving of carbs, they go up to 250 or above. I only tested twice at the 100 range right before dinner after not eating anything in the afternoon and exercising for 30 min. But after dinner they spiked up again. I have now limited my carb intake to about 60 g per day and still there is no effect on my BS. Plus I have now lost another few lbs and weight 118lbs.
I am really starting to get concerned. How long should I wait before calling my doctor? Does it take Glimepiride a few weeks to work? At this rate of weight loss, I will disappear in about a year!
Thank you all for any suggestions.
