I patted myself on the back a little too early last Friday, when the other two women in my gestational diabetes class were prescribed medication twice a day, and I only had to take it once. My fasting and 1-hour blood glucose numbers are continuing to go up, so I am now on a low dose of glyburide once before breakfast and once before dinner.
Sample Daily Schedule:
7:00 am: Ketone test strip (every other day), Pre-BG check, Take pill
7:30 am: Eat Breakfast, 1-2 carb counts
8:30 am: BG check
10:00 am: Morning snack, 1-2 carb counts
12:00 pm: Lunch, 3-4 carb counts
1:00 pm: BG check
3:00 pm: Afternoon snack, 1-2 carb counts
5:30 pm: Take pill
6:00 pm: Dinner, 3-4 carb counts
7:00 pm: BG check
