I was wondering do people with 3c diabetes control glucose levels the same as type 2.
The reason I ask is I was diagnosed with type 2 after severe pancreatitis and losing half of it to necrosis and the problem I have is my levels are linked more to pancreatic pain than sugar. For example I often test and some days I can eat anything I want with no impact on sugar levels then other days I can eat very low carb and get readings of 11-13. I tend to get the higher readings when I have more pancreatic pain.
So I'm really struggling to control the HBA1c levels, testing doesn't really help as I can test the same food 20 times and get massively different readings.
I just wondered has anyone else experienced similir, the GP is just fixated with type 2.
Thanks for any info
