Gestational diabetes (insulin) in 1989
Diagnosed T2 in 1991
Long history of diabetes threaded throughout my family, it was always going to be a genetic timebomb waiting to go off!
Different treatment regimes over the last 25 years with varying success, have been on insulin since 2009.
Prescribed Forxiga May 2016. Had severe reaction which led to an emergency admission with DKA. Now on basal/bolus.
No longer following LCHF regime following hospital admission, but eating lower carbs @150g per day
