I just think it's a bit wrong for we to say that as the less informed diabetics could take that completely as they can be cured!! I'm new to all this, I'm 31 and type 2 but I know that, like you said, it can be very well controlled but not reversed!!!

She's just been on this morning saying she's post 10 stone and is going for IVF at 50 She also said she was on insulin for 20 years and now has totally eradicated her diabetes!? false hope for people struggling with Diabetes??

I personally would wait until the cold has gone. When you're poorly the level can be slightly elevated so you could get a false reading! I was in the same boat, gestational on insulin for 12 weeks then got diagnosed Type 2 10 months after birth :( Let us know how you get on x

Thanks Anna... To be honest I'm used to it now its become the norm for me really. But I do start to struggle around 2ish most days, but it's just clicked that it could be the reason my blood sugars are all over the place!! Ive started to just relax in the evenings now rather than trying to get...

I have a one year old that has cut 16 teeth since he was 4 months old, can count on one hand the amount if full nights sleep we've had in those 8 months :( Can anyone tell me whether the lack of sleep and getting up 2-3 times a night would make it harder to control BS levels?? We had a...

It was fab last night! I do honestly think James will win hut Jahmene is a little sweetie, you just want to cuddle him up and pay him on the head and say 'there, there' haha

Hi Jo, The same happened to me. I'm only 31. I was in insulin when I was pregnant so wasn't really suprised with the diagnosis. Use this site for support, it will get easier... Once you've changed your eating habits it will just become second nature. it's nice to meet someone in the same...

I think some people go into a kind of denial and refuse to change their habits! Why change what you eat when the doctors will just give you something to fix it?? I am only 31 so I know this us going to take years of hard work to keep on track but the longer I can do something to help the...

Awesome :D well done!!!

I'm only newly diagnosed and yet to have a follow up but I definitely agree with you that you should have been given more information! I was diagnosed two months ago tomorrow and there's been no mention of going back just been told they check BP, weight, hba1c etc once a year!!! Great!! So...

Hi Sam... I was similar in that I had GD in my last pregnancy controlled by insulin and I'm now left type 2, Im 31. Firstly, so sorry for your loss last year :( such an awful thing to happen. I would concentrate on one thing at a time as an action plan really... Quit smoking THEN build up...

Thanks guys!! Sorry it's a bit of an odd one. No I couldn't find much online either so thought the lovely people on here could help!! So pretty much with ovulation and menstruation, it's going to be hard work!! I'm guessing as mentioned by Hobbs that menopause will also be an issue. That...
