Grandma Misti

T2 Diabetic of 23 years standing. Most of that time I have maintained my blood sugar by diet and exercise, though pregnancy did require insulin.

10 years ago I had to convince my new doctor that I am actually diabetic because my control was so tight, but I needed hbA1c tests!

The last few years, diet and exercise have stopped working well. My carb count was going lower and lower but my blood sugar was going higher and higher. That doctor was finally convinced as he watched with me has my hbA1c started to climb.

I am sensitive to corn, so most medications are unavailable to me, but I finally found some traditional herbs that have made my blood sugar responsive again. Joined back up after a long absence to get the reinforcement I need while I learn what my bodies needs now.
