All advice at any time is welcome! I'll definitely give it a go, it can't hurt can it & I'll as gp about vitamin D aswell, thank you [emoji4]

I'm exactly the same & on co-codamol for scatica too but it doesn't touch new pain (now for obvious reasons lol) thanks again [emoji4]

Thank you, I think I'm going to have to as the pain isn't leaving, the only way I can describe it is having hundreds of fire ants crawling over (mostly) the soles of my feet & periodically shooting pains up my big toes, it's so sore to even stand [emoji26] I thought I was OK because I was told...

So sorry I didn't notice your reply, my feet have no cuts, grazes, broken skin or blisters, however I have started getting a feeling of hot pins & needles & tenderness & a lot of pain when standing, not sure what I can do for it? Tia

I suffer from depression and the last couple of months have been difficult. I've ignored my diet & diabetes and not checked my numbers. I'm now trying to get them back under control, my fasting numbers this morning were 15.9 but 2 hours later my numbers had rose to 19.5 without eating or...

Thanks, I might just give my doctor a miss then, hope yours get better soon

Where you put on any medication for it? X

Does anybody know if you can have Peripheral Neuropathy without having any foot problems? I've got all of the symptoms but my feet are fine, I've got a gp appointment in a couple of weeks but was hoping someone could give me some advice in the mean time, TIA x

If you can advise me that would be great, I've looked at various meters on Amazon etc fairly cheap but the testing strips are so expensive?

I wonder if this is why I've felt so rubbish when trying to do (and failed) a low carb high fat diet before?

Nope, never got a meter or prescription? Was told I still didn't need to test (I'm in Scotland but wouldn't think that would be any diffrent?) Was basically told to cut portion sizes and go on a calorie controlled diet?

I have a gp appointment on Wednesday so I will ask her but she may refer me to my diabetes nurse, thanks

Sorry to ask but on the first link you gave me it said full fat milk, someone else said really double cream is better, what do you think?

Well done!

Thank you, my diabetes nurse told me I couldn't have a hypo unless I was on insulin but someone on here told me that it was not true, I was told that because the metformin was not working well enough I was being put on gliclazide & that's all the information I needed?

Good tip, thanks. I'm right in thinking no milk, even full fat or gold top is allowed? So double cream instead?

Thank you, will try & start again

So really need to stick to 3 meals, low carb & high fat? Thanks

Thank you, I might give it a try again, I'll have a look around. It was just really hard giving up basically everything I eat now but I know it needs to be done. Could you tell me will low carb high fat still allow me to lose weight? I'm a grazer rather than a big mean eater?

Thank you, that's great
