Awww that all sounds pretty harrowing. I very luckily havnt experienced anything as serious as you, but I do have an understanding re some of the emotional issues with constant diagnosises and the loss of my physical freedom. And often these situations absolutely stop us in our tracks. You are...

Just adding to this...I had heard about type 3 but didn't correlate type 3 with the (c) Wow you must have been really going through it ..very sorry to hear. I do hope you are on top of things now?

That's interesting..I guess you must eat plenty of low carb veggies and nuts ? It's truly crazy when you start diving into all this just how scary the recommendations are ..(its pretty much the same here in the UK from what I can gather ) Im off to Google diabetes 3.:-)

Yes you're right ..I went off the page and came back on again. All there now.

I'm not sure what's going on here I have replied to all of you individually but my replies seemed to have disappeared .. maybe a forum glitch or something.just don't want anyone to feel I've not responded to all you're supportive messages.

Hi catinthehat Thanks again I'm sure you're busy and I had alot of questions. I guess I mean that I intend to get into normal ranges ie the ranges of a non prediabetic. I believe that will have an impact on my other conditions too which is so important. Totally get that I can never eat a large...

Ahh you answered part of my question while I was typing out my post ..I see ..Thankyou !

Thankyou catinahat It makes sense about the slower digestion since I have drastically cut carbs for several weeks. I guess what you may be saying is that you cannot really determine whether you have got rid of pre diabetes via the meter? Unless maybe could general trends of sugars becoming lower...

Ahh thankyou :-) really appreciate you taking the time to reply. Is this an NHS course? I'm feeling extremely jaded by the NHS after years of misdiagnosis mis treatment and fob offs tbh.I avoid as much as possible now as i find they raise my stress levels too much!lol My doctor was very...
