Just out of curiosity, how is coughing related to high blood sugar?

  In no way. I simply had cough, that didn't stop, and went to the doctor to check what's going on. She reminded me that the last time I've been there (before that) my sugar was quite elevated, but not so much, but then when I was supposed to come back then later to re-check... I didn't... (Familiar story anyone)? So she checked it, and it was... staggering really really high. Got metformin, glypzide prescribed, and other things. etc. What I realized, compared to the last time I did atkins - is not take it so pedantic - e.g. just cut the sugar where makes most sense - like bread, potatoes, obviously sweet things (pastries, cake, chocolate, ice cream, etc., etc.). I still eat berries, watermellon (sometimes), and vegetables (if tomato is a vegetable - I can't live without them :)). Also more coffee than usual...
