No, I don't think it was adressed well because no insulin an no c-pep while fasting is just not true. My levels were not 0 last year and they are not in other patients, e.g. publication https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11695-013-0872-8 No, I'm not testing levels. I've had success with...

I was diagnosed about 2 years ago with pre-diabetes. Currently my fasting glucose is 5, glucohemoglobine - 5.8 Fasting C-peptide analysis came back as <0.1. Last year it was norm - 3 ng/ml. I'm controlling my blood sugars with liraglutide. As for other symptoms that should be there with no C-pep...

No, I'm not currently low-carbing. Yes, it was fasting test.

I'm on liraglutide to control for blood glucose and for weight loss. So that's keeping my glucose levels stable

I was diagnosed about 2 years ago with diabetes. My fasting glucose is 5, glucohemoglobine - 5.8 C-peptide analysis came back as <0.1. Last year it was norm - 3 ng/ml Any clues what's going on?

my obgyn suggested adding victoza to metformin to help loose weight. I doubt my endocrinologist will be able to make it state funded. It costs over 100 euros for package, how long would I go with one package? How many pens are there?

Thanks for sharing your story, it's inspirational! Good job!

I have follow up 6 month after initial diagnosis. At the beggining I was tested for fasting glucose, fasting insulin, HbA1 and will have those retested. No glucose tolerance test however. I'm not UK, I'm from Europe.

I'm also newbie suffering from PCOS. It's two month from initial diagnosis, I have managed to put down 5kgs, but it's really difficult. I still have 50 kg to loose. I'm really happy that I have managed to get out of severe sugar cravings with LCHF diet. How do you know about insuline...

Hmm, I'm in continental Europe I'll test.

Do you include legumes in you mealplans? What I'm reading is controversial - some resources say legumes are good for stabilising diabetes, some resources say they have too many carbs. Now I'm adding some lentils to soup I'm preparing and I want to figure out how much carbs it has - do I need...
