Hi there,
I am new to this site,
I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes approx 1 year ago but am having difficulty coming to terms with it.
I am supposed to be taking Metformin but have stopped taking it as it was upsetting my stomach.
I have started a low carb diet (Dr Charles clarks New Low Carb Diet)
I have found that my bg levels havwe reduced and are usually approx 6 in the mornings. I am pleased with this.
I am just a bit concerned about the diet as diabetes nurse and dietician are advising against this diet.
Does anyone have any advice?
Christine
