    Type 2 Neuropathy

    This sounds familiar. The ache/pain in my hip and leg is always there. It hasn't gone away since it began in March last year. It's not so bad as it was but I think I'm used to the pain now. I can walk distances but like you, have to stop every now and again. I am losing weight so hopefully that...

    Type 2 Neuropathy

    Hello everyone So some of you may have seen I have been struggling of late to control my by levels after a long period of good control. I have been reading up on neuropathy and am now wondering if my control has been out for longer than I thought. Since March 2015 I have had lower back...

    Good Morning all and thanks for your input, it is appreciated. Just to clarify as I feel I may have unintentionally mislead about Slimming World. Whilst I am following SW, its an online group and I don't attend class. Therefore although I am losing weight, I will happily try a different way if...

    Hi AndBreathe. I meant slimming world is working from a weight loss point of view. I have only just restarted finger prick testing. Coincides with me having a cold and sore throat so I'm not sure how accurate testing will be right now.

    Thanks for your reply ExD. The original test they gave me was bloods, bottle of glucose, wait two hours and (try very hard not to be sick), more bloods. Voila. You are diabetic. As I said in my original post, one GP was flabbergasted when she checked my regular results and they were all...

    Hi everyone So please bear with me as this could be a long post. I was diagnosed type 2 about 8 years ago. In all that time I have somehow managed to stay off meds. However, although I was pretty anal about testing and following what the DN and doctor said, each subsequent test came back well...
