Hi everyone

[Hunnie-Bunnie]

Hello all, Ihave been type 2 for 20 years but was rushed into hospital in March as I was constantly being sick and couldn't keep anything down they tested my levels and they were 31 and my ketones were 5!! They put me on Insulin 4 times a day with 4 blood tests which have now come down to 3. I struggle sometimes to get my levels down but am trying everyday,.

This seems a nice place to be, hope to meet like minded people!

Hi, and welcome!
If there's anything you want to know or ask about, shoot... I don't use insulin myself, diet controlled here (ketogenic diet). I just hope you'll feel better soon!
