    No link found between type 2 diabetes and thyroid dysfunction, say Iranian scientists

    I thought thats what it meant, but the headline is a bit misleading. Thanks! There was a similar study in india recently which found that if hypothyroidism was treated in new t2ds the bgl were lowered, in some cases requiring no further tx. I think the headline implies no link at all, which is...

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    Morning all. 5.8 today. Surprised I managed to walk down stairs to take blg cos I started an aquafit class last night. And I did yoga on tuesday. No exercise for over 10 years and now 2 a week. I am in total awe of all of you on here that run miles. How on earth do you do it?

    No link found between type 2 diabetes and thyroid dysfunction, say Iranian scientists

    I can understand the headline!!!. So, no link found. So why does it say in the text that there is a link between diabetes and thyroid tests? Does it mean that the diabetes can alter the tests in a way which means that the tsh is not actually lower? The tests just show that it is? I think the...

    A Step in the right direction.

    This is such a good idea. I have not exercised in yearsand the thought of starting again is very daunting. I am going swimming in an aquasize class tonight and really not looking forward to it. A supportive group who knows my struggle would really help.

    Pleasantly surprised at GP review

    Congratulations, you are a star!!! But how lucky for you that you didnt need to work at it and all you had to do was take some pills the clever gp gave you.

    That is really interesting. Is there a study for this? Thanks.

    My personal hypothesis - T2 - Low insulin Diet

    Ok. Bit confused on the whole oil thing. I understand that the ratio should be good. So does that mean that all the negative effects of o3 can be overcome just eating more o6? In other words if you have a dreadful diet but take a shed load of o6 supplements all will be good? Seriously dim! And...

    Newly Diagnosed - Doctor says Meds forever..

    Hello and welcome to this site. It has changed my life. I also started with the blood sugar diet book but gave up on the recipes cos they were both expensive and fiddly. This site has a great low carb food section that has some great hints and I use it a lot. As to your type of diabetes, I hope...

    Hypos

    I think that you cannot let this go. I would think about having a conversation with the manager. Find out just what they consider the normal range to be. And then go from there. I know that the place where my mum lives (extra care housing) does not consider t2d anything to worry about . My mum...

    Eye Test with Optician.

    Thanks! I might have to go before that cos its driving me potty. Had my retinopathy test recently and thats all good. Think it must be the change in bgl. Thanks for reminding me to do something about it, guzzler, instead of just sitting about moaning.x
