    low c-pep - LADA?

    No, I don't think it was adressed well because no insulin an no c-pep while fasting is just not true. My levels were not 0 last year and they are not in other patients, e.g. publication https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11695-013-0872-8 No, I'm not testing levels. I've had success with...

    victoza

    my obgyn suggested adding victoza to metformin to help loose weight. I doubt my endocrinologist will be able to make it state funded. It costs over 100 euros for package, how long would I go with one package? How many pens are there?

    pulses

    Do you include legumes in you mealplans? What I'm reading is controversial - some resources say legumes are good for stabilising diabetes, some resources say they have too many carbs. Now I'm adding some lentils to soup I'm preparing and I want to figure out how much carbs it has - do I need...
