[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 1569300, member: 355878"] I was diagnosed soon after you - mid November. I was a bit Zen about it - I just eat quite a bit of salad and avoid the usual suspects, grains of all kinds, potatoes, high sugar fruits - and in 6 months I had normal readings. I tried to take the tablets I was prescribed, but I was so ill I stopped taking them - life was not worth living - I was a bit peeved to find that I don't need them. There can be a bit of a blame game about diabetes, but it happens to a lot of people and I suspect that the modern diet is far more to blame than any individual. I was on a cholesterol lowering diet for over a year, putting on weight very quickly, yes, but my Hba1c was 91 at diagnosis, so I think that the finger of suspicion points to carbs being the culprit.
