[QUOTE="Arab Horse, post: 836406, member: 136328"] Thanks for the advice @Indi51. Sadly I am well and truly T2. I went for my free health check and expected to pass with flying colours. had a request to have more bloods (fasting) before seeing the nurse as my glucose was high (receptionist didn't know what it was). Went and had the fasting bloods which included HbA1c and thyroid function tests and received a phone call from the DN asking me to make an appointment ASAP; my HbA1c was 10.4 and my glucose was 18.6! For the first few months I got nowhere as I was doing the advice given by the DN and Desmond day. I then found this forum and started very low carbing which has helped enormously but still not anywhere near normal and can't eat anything much without going well over normal range for my BS which is why I want to try the ND. I am now 7 stone so really, really, really don't want to lose weight but realise I will have to for a few weeks although 800 calories at my weight is a lot more than it would be for someone twice my weight!!! I will get a magnesium supplement but I do take a multi vitamin and mineral supplement already; maybe need some extra magnesium. I had read that Mg was important for the pancreas. [/QUOTE]
