[QUOTE="rom35, post: 1734543, member: 470050"] As I understand the problem, taking insulin for T2D ends in the circle - at the end you will need more and more and more... - this way goes to nowhere. You should try to stop taking insulin. Talk to your doc that you will try LCHF diet. First I would try real (no cheating) LCHF diet without fasting, measure and measure and slowly lowering the insulin. There is allways hope that if you will get the BG to normal levels and with diet and excercise the pancreas will work enough for you. I have "strong" diabetes, I can eat only 5g (well, what I can count) per meal to not elevate my BG from starting 5.6 over 7.7. Maybe my pancreas is also out of duty. But no meds and no insulin for me. With more carbs I have to go immediately for a walk to burn it (that's why my priority is to check 1 hour after meal, less priority 2 hours) . "[I]my pancreas may need a bit of a rest[/I]" - the best rest for pancreas is to remove carbs from your diet - [I]she[/I] will not be at work, thus in rest. [/QUOTE]
