Hi there, Diabetes UK have just launched a campaign to improve emotional and mental health support for people living with diabetes. The relentless nature of dia,betes can have a serious impact on emotional, mental and psychological wellbeing. But, too often, support is missing. I've signed this...
It probably boils down to no one has done the research in that topic yet. Or if they are doing it, it hasn't been completed or been running long enough. Just a pure guess.
I agree with everyone here it's down to you what you take note your doctor. You are doing really well. Stick to what is working and best for you. Congratulations on your results.
I was told I didn't need to test. They gave in and gave me a meter. But I have to buy test strips and lances. No prescription possible. I agree it's a scandal.
By the way Rachox have you looked at Libre? It will do all this for you. Bit pricy though. I am still thinking about it.sure others on the forum use it.
Thanks Rachox, my problem being any older man is my fat is all round my middle quite lean elsewhere. Of course fat round the middle is a cause of t2. My waist is 36in. So not too bad. Just want to shift a few more pounds get that T2 totally reversed [emoji4]
