End of December 2024, well surprisingly enough I am still not on the insulin, my HBA1c has not changed, I have maintained my regime of careful eating with exercise to control any spikes, I am currently 96% in range for the last 30 days on my Libre 92% for the last 90 days, it's certainly a long...

Why don't you have a glucose monitor ? If you have LADA you are most certainly allowed one on the NHS, as soon as I was diagnosed with LADA I was given libre 2 the same week.

On most cases that is true however I have Lada and have avoided insulin so far and I regularly get lows in fact some nights I can get a low alarm 3 or four times, my doctor at the hospital and my doctor at the surgery just cannot believe that I control my diabetes with my diet and exercise, most...

Short update, I relaxed on my ultra strict eating regime and continued with the exercise, my most recent HBa1c is sitting at 43 but that takes into a country the period of reduced Metformin, the doctor is still scratching her head a bit and says carry on doing what I am doing but expect at some...

I was diagnosed as LADA exactly a year ago, I have managed with a change in diet and exercise and my readings are still good so far without insulin but I do take Metformin, I suggest a talk with your doctor and they will suggest the best treatment for you, I will need insulin eventually but am...

I'm using a Oppo Reno 8, previously used a One plus Nord, both worked without any issues

One thing to note if you are using a libre 2 with your phone is that some of these errors can be fixed by going into your Bluetooth settings and removing any phones or devices that you do not use, make sure to turn Bluetooth off and back on after clearing off your old phones etc, for instance if...

At my last blood test I wrote a post on here that my hba1c had come down to 41 from 65, a few weeks ago I had a call from the hospital consultant who had a chat to me and he was surprised that I was managing without insulin, he then told me he would speak to my GP and try reducing my Metformin...

Thank you let's just say my doctor is as surprised as I am

Thank you and yes my health came team are fantastic

Best of luck to you I hope you can get it down

Hi all, diagnosed in July as a 1.5 diabetic with a hba1c reading of 110 I have not started insulin even though my doctor advised new to at the time, I asked her to allow me to try and get my levels down by proper food and exercise regime to which she agreed for 6 months providing I take...

A little late for a reply, sometimes my level starts to spike like this however as soon as it gets to 11+ I get on my treadmill for 15 minutes and this reverses it quickly and works every time, not practical for everyone but this works for me to keep the level from hitting that 15 where I would...

59 years old and just diagnosed with LADA, starting insulin next week, I'm in shock as I have went from a perfectly healthy, slim and active man into a weak and sick individual, feels as though my world is about to come crashing down round about me and yet everyone around me seems to think my...
