Thank you to you all for the help you give to everybody.
Had my appointment with DN this morning and I am now 44mmol/L but can't drop the Metformin yet. DN was very pleased and asked if I could help some of their other diabetic patients, (think she was joking) because she told me originally that LC was not safe. Also weight on diagnosis was 83kg (13st1lb)and it's now 64kg (10st1lb).
But, there's always a but, my TSH levels have risen from 0.59 miu/L to 8.4 miu/L so I am back to 125mcg Leovthyroxine after it was dropped from 150mcg to 100mcg soon after diagnosis in March 2015 and my cholesterol has risen to 8.0 from 4.7 as a consequence. Another blood test in 6-8 weeks.
Again thank you for your help, wouldn't have been able to do this without you all.
