Hi know ive written on here about doing this but now I am actually doing it and am on day 3 of atkins.......apart from a little greek yoghurt I have had no carbs......meat, cheese, green veg, lettuce, fish, nuts.......caffeine free drinks.....I am on 20 and 20 dose of lantus in a day and as my dr told me not to take insulin when I have no carb I have only taken novorapid for correctional doses...which is every meal.
I had initially cut my lantus from 20 and 20 to 18 and 18 anticipating a drop in sugars....but as they have remained high I have put the lantus back up to 20 and 20.
I dont feel great, but I dont normally feel great with CFS and fibromyalgia too.
am I doing the right thing.....I cannot get hold of any of the diabetes
I did have urine sticks but they are well out of day and discoloured.
Should I be testing for ketones?
should there be ketones as isnt that the point of the atkins?
Really could do with some opinions please
I am also on 200 thyroxine day
Thanks
