[QUOTE="wallycorker, post: 111512, member: 17475"] Hi Ken, Certainly metformin seemed to be taking me nowhere. My GP just prescribed and doubled the dosage with no noticeable significant improvement. No degree of control there that I ever noticed really. As regards exercise, I've never really picked up that had any/much effect either. I'm quite willing to accept that exercise will help in some way but at 66 years-of-age then there is no way I want to plan my future control of my Type 2 condition around loads of exercise. So that leaves me with managing carbohydrate intake - exactly my original point in this debate. If I'd not reduced starchy carbohydrate intake just over one year ago, then I suspect that I could very well have been on insulin now. Today, I seem a million miles away from needing insulin. However, I do realise that nothing is necessarily forever and that is why I'm always wanting to learn more as to how I might be able to improve my situation. Best wishes as always - John [/QUOTE]
