Brilliant news!!!

How do. I’ve had all the tests for LADA, I was diagnosed at 32 with hba1c of 106. My bmi is 27 and I have an active lifestyle. Nothings working for me so I imagine insulin soon. Pants isn’t it :( But you’re not alone. It is indeed really unfair.

My mum has a walking pad she uses infront of the TV. Could be an idea :)

I’ve already had it. It’s not LADA.

Anti GAD and all the others. Twice lol. They’ve said it’s definitely not LADA. Last ones were done 2020 :)

It won’t let me fill in a profile so ‍♀️

Hia I’m definitely not LADA. They’ve tested me twice. I’m type 2 and diagnosed since 2018. Currently on metformin and Sitagliptin. I’ve got a referral back to hospital as GP nurse doesn’t know what to do with me. Breakfast every day is low carb & low sugar bread with half an avocado, smoked...

Good morning! I’m recently off gliclazide and was really looking forward to also getting rid of the constant hunger I attributed to the glic. If the last 4 days are anything to go off, turns out the glic wasn’t the issue - I’m just constantly hungry! So it must be because my hba1c is 106...

I am the most dried up husk [emoji23][emoji23] I’m T2 since 2018. I SWEAR BY Nivea Soft for everything. Hands, feet, body, face, lips.. I’d be horrific without Nivea Soft by the bucket

Hello - regarding GLP1 - my BMI is too low to qualify for it

That’s exactly how mine go! - Doppler for pulse - Pricky sticky thing for sensation - Musical tuning fork for vibration test - little moisturiser for funsies

Hia. I’m lactose intolerant and I use Arla Lacto Free Semi Skimmed. I only use a drop and only have 2 coffees or teas a day max. Per 100 it’s 2.6g carbs but I reckon I use less than 50ml a day :)

Hi everyone - here’s the update: The nurse agreed in order to save my job, I can stop taking gliclazide. She has suggested sticking with metformin and Sitagliptin, and would like to try me on a drug called Empagliflozin HOWEVER, I should have my enforced medical at work first and discuss...

Hi Brian - thanks. My carb intake is around the 60-70g a day range and I walk my dog 3 miles at least every day plus weighted workouts, and my job is constant up and down, walking along a lever frame and pulling levers. I’d say I’m fairly active and I do look after my diet. I’ve been diabetic...

Thank you very much for GPL-1 suggestion - I will look into that immediately ahead of this afternoons appointment!! And yep I’m U.K. - the receptionists seem so angry when you question them or ask for better!! Thanks again :)
