Thanks! I'll play around with the app a little more. I can find the function for logging carbs but nothing to help me calculate the carbs.....thinking this along with a carb counting app is the way to go. [emoji4]

Hello! I've just started using insulin and I'm looking for the best app to track everything in one place....basal, bolus, food, exercise etc. I'm currently using the freestyle libre sensors, Nutracheck and my fitbit but I'm finding it all a bit confusing so looking for recommendations...

Yep those are the 2 i’m having. Fingers crossed I’ll have more clarity next week [emoji4]. There doesn’t seem to be a lot of info about LADA out there which is frustrating.

The doc took me off glicazide a while ago.

My specialist said i was controlling my levels well so she took me off meds. I’ve been off them for 3 months and seemed to be stable. The levels have only started increasing in the last couple of weeks with no particular changes to diet/lifestyle.

BGs are currently high teens. My specialist is just so confident that i’m type 2....I feel a bit cheeky not trusting the diagnosis, but i’m fed up of feeling so exhausted.

Thanks for your response! I’ve just been trying to reduce my carbs and make sure i get to the gym 3 times a week and make sure i walk 10,000 steps a day. Nothing drastic but i’m not looking to lose too much weight. My fasting levels were down to 7.5-9.4 as an average so i’d stopped taking...

Is it possible to be diagnosed with LADA if there are only traces of keytones in your urine? I was diagnosed with type 2 in January and managed to control my BG through diet but in the last 2 weeks i’ve been quite ill...my BG is raised, I’m exhausted and feel generally unwell. I went to the...

Hi, I’m a t2 (diagnosed in January 2018) slim build- tested for keytones in urine so know its not t1. I was on glycoside and metformin and have managed to control my diet enough to come off most of the drugs. I’ve now been doing an 800 cal diet for 3.5 weeks. My blood bg is down to normal levels...

I do drive....no one has mentioned anything about that.... When I was last at the doctors they did test my urine for keytones and that was negative....

My boyfriend noticed that i was drinking loads of water and eating loads of food but not putting on weight. He pushed me to get screened at my local pharmacy who then referred me to my doctors. They did a HbA1c test which came back with a reading of 121. My specialist said it could have been...

Thank you for your response!! I usually get the 4s mid afternoon so i’ll have some sweets/something to boost my level....but a few hours later i feel bad again and i’m back in the 4s. I seem to be fine overnight/in the morning. My next proper check up is in April but maybe I’ll try to get an...

Well when i say young i’m 30....so fairly young for the average t2 diagnosis. If it was t1 i’d have known before now right?

I was diagnosed about a month ago...put on metformin and Glicazide (1 tablet each, twice a day). I’ve been measuring my BG twice a day and it’s gradually fallen from 22mmol to an average of 6-7mmol. This last week i’ve been getting readings of 4-5mmol and i’ve been feeling quite ill. I’ve been...

Thank you! Reading the posts in the forum is really helping me. The doc tested my urine for ketones and didn’t find anything so they ruled out type1. Is there another test they can do?

I’ve just been diagnosed with type2. I’m slim, aged 30, don’t have high blood pressure or cholesterol. Apart from losing some weight and feeling thirsty i feel absolutely fine. I was screened at a local pharmacy and my BG was 22.9 so i was referred to my doctor. I’m now measuring my BG twice a...
