Thanks for putting my mind at rest

Hi I was diagnosed with LADA a couple of weeks ago after being diagnosed with the type 2 in 2013. I was pretty much managing it, but this past year and a few months my hba1c has gone through the roof. That is also coupled with me losing tons of weight. I was never overweight to begin with. I was...

Years ago I sent my brother to the shops for a plain loaf (mostly found in Scotland) I said if they don't have a plain loaf just get me anything. He came back with a pack of cigarettes - I don't smoke.........

Hi, I'm a newbie, first post. I am wondering how do I tell if I am feeling ill is it linked to my diabetes (type 2)? I've had a really bad headache for 2 days now. I'm not dehydrated, in fact I'm really thirsty most of the time, nor anything else that I can put it down to. My most recent hb1ac...
