Hi. I was diagnosed January 2019 & within 18 months through diet & exercise only was in ‘remission.’ However even now I have spells when I am absolutely physically & mentally exhausted. I have discussed this with mu dr several times with no response on how to improve the situation or identify...

Anyone ever had these tested? Or any knowledge of why with T2 I might need to. Folate Ferritin Active B12 Magnesium D3

Calm down , we are all allowed our opinion and we are all different! X

Thanks. I have been trying to follow a lower carb diet. Nothing drastic & shock horror I have the occasional wrap! Where do I find out about ‘trigs low in comparison to my HD’. I asked about diet this morning, didn’t know! But I think I have a grandson older than him! And my diabetic nurse could...

Thank you! My feelings exactly! I was feeling really good about myself till then! When I asked about how I could adjust my Diet they seemed non plussed! I am also a women of a certain age which they both kept reminding me of! I can have a pneumonia jab if I want! ***!

No you are not over reacting! Coming from the professional point of view: you are being bullied by your line manager, be that head of dept.or headteacher, this is unacceptable. Speak to HR, union rep etc. Off the premises. Can you talk to the head or C of G, or are they the problem???? Have you...

Hi I am t2 under control mostly with diet & exercise . Hubby is demonstrating symptoms which I think he might be too. 2hrs after eating today he was 13.1, other day it was 18. Says he’s very tired light headed could do with losing a couple of stone he is 75

Thank you. I have noticed that my hay fever is bad at the moment which could explain the head. Felt much better today. Even went for a 3 mile walk getting in training , 10k to do in a few weeks for Alzheimer’s. Hope it’s not as hot as today.

Can’t seem to shake this off. Days of extreme fatigue, just want to sleep. Irritable, because I’m tired. Body feels weak. BS is ok for me. Doing everything I should I think. Oh and headaches like a vice on my head

' walked' even!

May have already posted this, but. Poached eggs breakfast. Chicken avocado cottage cheese salad lunch. Feeling sleepy and wobbly. 7.8. Not usual . Quick remedy? Oh and asked 3 miles this morning

Just drank a load of water. Now to run upstairs to bed!
