[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 1452595, member: 94045"] I was diagnosed in January 2014, and like you it was the nurse that diagnosed me. Many surgeries have prescribing nurses. They are qualified to prescribe certain medications, including Metformin. GPs generally delegate all Type 2 diabetic reviews etc to these nurses, so you are not on your own with this. I have never seen a GP for diabetic related stuff. You are VERY lucky to have a nurse that advocates low carb. Stick to her like glue. You seem to be very proactive about this, and your positive attitude will win the day. :) Yes, a meter is essential. [/QUOTE]
