Beginning of the year had steriods, blood sugars went to 29 (had gotten rid of diabetes as was gd) hba1c was 85 fbg 15.
Went on the lchf diet... 2 months later (with a month overlap) hba1c 48. Fbg 4.5.
Dr said i will be re tested in 3 months if it is 44 or lower i will be removed from register because of the over lap and seeing that i test loads and brought it all in (all normal except for up to the steriods).
I look at it as intollerance to carbs. My bg levels are in the non diabetic range and can struggle to keep them above 3.1... after eating chocolate and biscuits it rose to 5.7 and stayed there for 2 hours.
Listen to your body.
I have heard an algerian in france found a cure and cured type 1 and type 2 diabetics... it is now being researched further and so waiting with bated breath... i dont think i would ever want to go back to how i used to eat... i feel better... i am losing weight for the 1st time EVER... i have energy.
When they told me to eat more carbs and to see the dietician (because she said less than 50g carbs is not good and i will have no energy (load of rubbish)) told her where to go... i am happy on this diet and i can see it working. So yes there may not be a cure YET but hopefully i can keep myself healthy without complications until there is one... or at least to be around to watch my kids grow! And stay away from meds for as long as poss.
