I have received a report from my surgery following a recent blood test. Everything looks fine as I fall into the recommended range for every test that has been carried out. My one concern is that having been diabetic and reversed it 9 months ago my HbA1c is showing at 47. The recommended...

Normally my morning Bs is anything between 5.2 and 6.6. This morning it was 3.4. This seems very low. I checked it again about 15 mins later and it was 3.6. Never been this low before. My diabetes nurse has said I shouldn't drive if it goes much below 5. Help please. I was on 2 X 1000 SR...

That sounds good. Mine 7.0 this morning. Higher than it has been. I have had readings in the main between 5.3 and 6. I have been and still am on the blood sugar diet attempting to reverse my diabetes type 2. I have been doing relatively well and have lost 24 lbs. Had a lovely day yesterday at a...

Disaster today. 8.6. Did have one plum yesterday and a stir fry with lots and lots of veg but added some Plum and Hoisin sauce. Obviously not a good idea. Fasting BS has been between 6.2 and 7.3 since coming off Glimipiride. It had been 4.2 - 6 so a marked difference. Will check later to see...

I read it this morning. It was a comment made on drfuhrman.com website where someone was saying don't eat meat if you want to reverse diabetes. It may be a comment from a reader rather than from the guru himself. Thank you for replying

Thank you. Pork is in Michael Mosley's book do I did wonder. I was on drfuhrman.com where there was a comment made on not eating any meat to reverse diabetes.

I started the Low Mediterranean Diet recommended in Michael Mosley's Low Blood Sugar Diet book and managed to stick to it for 2 weeks. I lost 8 lbs and my sugar first thing in the morning was between 4.8 and 6.2. I was hungry at times but managed to overcome it. I exercise 3 times a week and...

I agree that it is all so confusing. I like cauliflower rice fortunately and if I have a home made curry I choose a bed of cabbage rather than rice. It is delicious and I don't feel deprived. Fruit is a big problem as if I don't have a dessert then I want to have fruit instead. We have all...

I have just been prescribed this tablet on top of Glucophage SR which I have been taking for around 7 or 8 years. I was prescribed Liniglyptin or something like that last year but reacted badly to it after 2 weeks and was then taken off it. I came out covered in a rash all over my face. I was...

Hotel Chocolat have 99% chocolate in one of their ranges.

I used to have Yoghurt with Hot mango chutney as a low fat dip. Need to watch the sugar content of the chutney but there are lower sugar products on the market.

Do you have Metformin as well. I have 2 Metformin slow release and am now going to be adding Linagliptin as well. A bit bothered about so much medication. Thank you very much for replying so quickly. I will read your Blog.

Hi I have been a Type 11 Diabetes patient for about 5 years and have taken slow release Metformin at gradually increasing doses over that time. I also take Simvastatin 40g. I have now been changed to a slightly lower Metformin dosage - 1x1000 and 1x750 instead of 2x1000 daily and have been...
