    Getting control.

    I personally feel cutting the meat out is what has 1 -helped my blood sugar control ( I tried the keto diet at first ). 2- helped me lose 10lbs this week ! I don't watch my carbs as such , I eat as much veg as I want and will have if I want it sweet potatoes instead of white. The main reason...

    Getting control.

    Hi all, still not heard from hospital regards to whether I'm type 1 or 2 but nothing bad has happened so must be type 2. Anyway, after a lot of depriving myself, cutting out most carbs and not getting anywhere I have finally found a lifestyle that works. In 6 days I've had my levels go from 18+...

    Unsure if I am type 2 ?

    Just had blood tests done there was 2 other ones for testing which was anti insulin antibody and anti GAD antibody . Apparently the 1st one is to distinguish if it's type 1 or not.

    Unsure if I am type 2 ?

    Thank you both. I have a meter and my levels are never in the healthy range, I can eat nothing and they're still high. I've looked online and it says going vegetarian and low carb could help so I'm going to try that. Also is it normal for it to take so long to the results back ?
