[QUOTE="Li4m79, post: 1131155, member: 291406"] Hi guys.. I'd cut my finger at work a couple of weeks ago and jokingly got a type 1 buddy of mine to run my glucose levels. !He did, and I was up at 18+ he was shocked. So I gave it a couple if days tested my levels again and was still at 18. !time for the Docs I thought. At the DR's I hit 24. Straight away I was told I had diabetes. Was told he's certain its Type 2 and put me on Gilpizide just now to lower my levels. !The Dr was a tad confused though as I'm only 37, not overweight and showed no symtoms at all. I'm also on statins due to having high cholesterol readings in my blood tests... So a double whammy. I have read up quite a bit and this forum and the people in seem to be a font of information and support so I'm glad to be a part of it.[emoji1] [emoji1] After 3 days on tablets my BG had gone down to 14 and I go back on Thursday which will be 9days since diagnosis. I have looked at the LCHF diet, would that be suitable with having high cholesterol levels? [/QUOTE]
