Signature
Diagnosed 2009 when HbA1c was 117.5 mmol/mol (IFCC) or 12.9% (DCCT) prescribed MDI Insulin and Metformin.
Latest HbA1c March 2017 = 31 mmol/mol (5.0%)
Meds = currently zero meds for diabetes
Diet = I just eat moderate carbs, and low GI carbs where possible.
Listen to others - then find out what works for you.
