[QUOTE="Saharii, post: 1532108, member: 428077"] Thank you both for your replies. Guzzler I am sorry for your losses but happy to hear the happy ending. We are trying for our first child and I am really hoping next time I am able to keep the pregnancy! I don't have a meter yet but am most likely to get one, just need to read a bit more which one to get. I was never advised by the gp to get one and here on the forum I was reading about diabetic nurses - I need to ask the gp for a consultation with a diabetic nurse. Thanks so much daisy1! So much info :) I am wondering one thing though: I have a colleague who is newly diagnosed as well - and the strange thing is that when she was put on metformin (high dose) she didn't change her diet at all (including pastries, cakes, carbs etc) and still managed to get her levels down after three months only with metformin! I wonder how that is possible - her initial level was even higher than mine. Does it mean some people can keep their normal diet with metformin and still bring their HBA1C down? [/QUOTE]
