Thanks everyone,much appreciated.

I started the LCHF but had a few bad days recently.

I have had a headache nearly every day for the last two weeks is this normal with diabetes? I'm due to have a blood test Friday and then see the DN for my first check up since being diagnosed. I will mention it to her but the help and support is very limited.

I have just received my results and I have background retinopathy. As with everything else so far with diabetes...here's a leaflet...now off you go. I feel angry at the lack of support and communication you get from the medical profession. Sorry for the rant, I will have a nice collection of...

Hello @Welshman1952 and welcome. I took the suggestions on here and brought a SD Codefree tester and it has really helped me over the last couple of months to understand what food affects me and what I can eat. I am trying the Low carb high fat diet and finding it OK and have only really had a...

Thank you everyone. I went this morning after only a few hours sleep due to worrying. The staff were lovely and explained what they were going to do. The drops did sting, bit like getting your mascara in your eyes. My vision was blurry for a couple of hours or so and I am still a bit light...

I am going for my first eye screening tomorrow morning and after being quite irritated all day by everything and everybody I have realised I am nervous and worried. I notice my eyes can be blurry in the morning and evening, sometimes stinging. I have not researched too much as I can sometimes...

Happily living in a village in Northamptonshire. Work as a Criminal Justice Drug & Alcohol Worker and I am also a qualified Psychotherapist in my spare time.

I was diagnosed just over two months ago. I brought reverse your diabetes by Dr David Cavan which is great. I've started doing the Low carb high fat diet which is suggested on here and check my bloods regularly. NHS have been useless giving me no help and incorrect information so I am grateful...

I am finding this too, but I am learning about it the best I can and trying to get to grips with all the changes in my life. I guess that's all you can do really. It takes a while to get acceptance, at least for me it does. Good luck x

In Costa's just ask for an Americano with pouring cream. It's all I ever have and it's lovely. They give you a miniature jug of cream so you can add as much or as little as you want.

Where is the blogs forum?[emoji2]

I have just asked my local waitrose if they would order me a loaf as they only get five loaves in over three days and I am struggling to get in when they are there due to working. If not I am going to empty space in my freezer and order four at a time. Very nice bread though.

Hello and welcome firstly. I had a similar experience with my GP and diabetes nurse. I luckily found this forum as you have and thankfully have been given much better information and advice. I brought the book Reverse your Diabetes by Dr David Cavan and have been reading that. I have chosen to...

Just had this Livlife bread after reading about it on here. Now for someone who likes white bread toasted I actually think it's lovely. I have tried a few seeded type breads trying to find one I can have and here it is. Small slices and a little expensive but worth it. I will be getting this...

...and want to get it right. Recently diagnosed a month or so ago with type two diabetes and I have been trying to do the LCHF diet. I have changed all my food and on the odd days when I have had something with carbs I have suffered. I am testing my BS levels despite being told not to and I...
