I was starting to get this, tingling in my feet, a bit sore when i woke up, loss of feeling in one of my feet and searched online. Found Thiamine research and started taking this about a month ago. I feel my feet are much better, less pins and needles and more feeling all over. I take 600g of...

Okay, thanks for the input. Aby

Oh sounds great. Good luck with it all. I'm not in the UK at the moment and see the people at my GP's so little these days. But will keep it in mind for when we move back. Thanks again, Aby.

Thanks for the info, xx

Hi BarbaraBabcock, thanks for your messages, you have said such great information and interesting things to think about. I will definitely go back and research all the things you highlight. Good luck in your new coaching career and wishing you and your husband all the best. Thanks again for the...

Hi NicoleC1971 Thanks for this great info. I'm looking into everything you said and really appreciate your message. x

Hey, Is there any kind of course on becoming a diabetes health coach or something similar? After a some careful research it only looks as if healthcare professionals can do the training? I'm not medically trained or wish to go through medical school to do this. I was thinking of some kind...

Yes i am pregnant so am trying to follow what they the NHS folk say but it's so hard to eat carbs, inject insulin and have levels lower than 7 post meals. I have given myself a phobia of carbs i think! But having to eat more for the next 5 months so baby can get some. Thanks for the messages. x

Hi, I keep getting told that the brain needs 100g of carbs a day by the dietician at the hospital when i tell her about low carb eating. Is this really true? She says for the brain to function it needs 100g a day. 100g is a lot! I probably eat around 40-50g a day. Anyone shed any light on...

Hi there, I'm 17 weeks pregnant and have continued to follow a low carb diet as i seem to hypo's a lot when i bolus for meals and i don't enjoy injecting if i'm honest. I have a small toddler to run around after and the risk of hypo'ing gets me quite frustrated and depleted so i just don't eat...

Thanks for the luck, will definitely need it with the diabetes team i have at the moment. It seems like they are trying their hardest to warn me off it but it sounds so good. Thanks for sending the criteria, i've printed it out ready to see the consultant tomorrow!

Thanks, I have the freestyle lire at the moment and it's been amazing. Runs out tomorrow though which will be sad. But I'm really eager to get on the pump if the doctor approves it.

Just a general question about your pumps. Since finding out I'm pregnant I really want one and have been told that I don't fit the criteria and even if i did, it would take me too long to get my head around it and work it out before the labour. I really want it for the labour as I feel it will...

Hiya, Yes something is going wrong definitely, it might have been my smaller than usual breakfast yesterday and that i gave too much insulin for it. Thanks for the advice, will go back to the drawing board. Best wishes, Aby

Thanks for sharing. Will try that next time. Best wishes, Aby
