I've been given every statin known to my Dr & when I take them within days I'm in agony in every muscle of the body. It starts in my legs & works it way around my body. The Dr has offered me an RNA jab for cholesterol instead. What happens if I have the same reaction? It's not like I can undo...

Problem solved! Thanks for all the advice & replies guys. It turned out I am a complete numpty. I bought some sugar free gum to help with my expected sugar cravings & it turns out it contains a sweetener called maltitol. It didn't list it on the packets it just listed sweeteners. I found the...

Wow, thanks for the effort you put into this reply. You've also educated me a lot & I didn't know about the average level from the Hbac test either. My diagnoses consisted of my Dr taking a fasting blood sugar in her office as it was 9. I will look into your other advice too, thank you very...

Hi, I'm 57

Thanks mate, much appreciated. I'll fill the bio in later when I get time.

Thank You for the reply. I will try what you suggest to see if it makes a difference. I was starting to think, maybe it's because i've stored that many carbs throughout my body that I haven't used them all up yet. I'm a big bloke at 6'4" even though I've lost a lot of my old weight. I'm still...

Thanks for the reply. I'm just eating meat & green cabbage to keep things simple in an attempt to make it easier to follow to begin with.

I was diagnosed type two over 23years ago & started on diet, exercise & metformin. 10 years ago I was put on insulin, humalog 25 mix in the morning & humalog 50 mix in the evening. Two weeks ago I was told to increase my insulin to 38 units a day of both of the above with a HBac of 7.5. I...

Thank You I will look into that too. I remember when google used to be useful. All you get is adverts these days & unconnected waffle. That will save me a lot of work.

No worries Friend I'm a bit of a hypochondriac & always check out advice even from my Dr. :D But I do think you have given me a very good path to go down.

You could be onto something. I have frequent unexplained nose bleeds & bouts of low blood pressure to the point of feeling faint.

My Dr is always worried about cost these days which is understandable. He told be which one to buy & said he used it himself. If I remember it is 1000 units. It was £15 for a 6 month supply. He told me to double the does for 6 months & he will test me again. Apparently he said Vit D was made...

Quite the contrary you have been very helpful. Thank You. I'd not even heard of K2 so I will look into that. I keep getting cravings for peanuts funny enough & have heard that they contain Vit K. Not sure about K2. Once again thank you for your time and effort. Regards Tony.

I had 3 thyroid tests as the first came back low? The second 2 were normal. My Dr told me to take vitamin D supplements recently (2 weeks ago) as I was very low. I was also advised to take a vit B supplement as that was on the low side but not as low as D.

No I'm 6ft 4". Maybe it was 42 that rings a bell somewhere. It's ages since I was measured to be honest.
