Well done on getting your numbers down. My Hbac1 was 49 last week. I'm on quetiapine and wasn't diagnosed type 2 until put on the medication. My blood pressure and cholesterol are now in high risk and I've read quetiapine can put blood pressure up. I've totally lost my way on lchf due to family...

4.9 this morning

I really hope it works and am so pleased you have been listened to. I tried to reply yesterday but I think I added it onto your original thread!!! I am going to give quatiapine a few more weeks as my bg hasn't been to high, but if weight gain and high bg is a problem will go back. Good luck

I have decided to email my gp surgery as my doc only works 2 days a week and I wait 6 weeks to see her, I am going to request one of the above meds, for my anxiety, If they are suitable of course.

It's pretty well documented that these meds cause problems with bg and weight gain. Even after years of being off them! It's going to be a careful balancing act. I am down about it at the moment but am up for the fight ;)

Following low carb high fat and got bg down to good low levels. Gp put me back on quatiapine at the weekend and bloods already 12.6mmol, so unfair to have to sacrifice one side of Ill health to cope with another. :bigtears: Any suggestions gratefully accepted.

I can't quite belive these posts. I have previously been on this medication, put weight on (3 stone) and diagnosed this year with type 2, even though I had been off the med for 1 year, my gp agreed this was reason for going from Pre diabetic to T2. A few weeks ago I realised I was becoming Ill...

Type 2. Just a quick one guys. Two hours after eating, is over 8.5mmol a hyper or is it over 11mmol? Ive read the nice guidelines and written them down on the bg chart ive created, but ive confused myself!!! :arghh:

7.1 today

I promised I would let everyone know how I was getting on with the LCHF plan, after you were all so helpful. It hasn't been long but I wanted to let you know what I have learnt in the short time I have been following this. 1. My 4.3mmol readings, that were giving me 'hypo' symptom's, were...

If i had a 3.8mmol i would be shaking, sweating, feeling faint and gorging on carbs!!!!! Being a newbie it always suprises me how We are all very different.

I've just gone back to some of the threads from over two years ago, regarding reactive hypoglycemia and im shocked at how similar this has played out in my lifetime. Had PCOS and hypoglycemia for as long as I can remember, definitely since age 18. Most of my life very lean and sporty and every...

Can someone let me know how I make a butter creamy coffee so I am set for the AM. Thanks

Thanks for the reply Lamont D. I was surprised by my gp but if I can follow a good low carb plan without affecting any other health conditions, I know I'll be feeling better. It's trial and error right.
