    ADHD and Diabetes

    Karen, I am so incredibly sorry for your loss. But grateful that you took the time to post about your story. Thank you for the advice. I am pushing myself every day not to let Diabetes be one of the things that my ADHD affects. Thank you very much for sharing and I've taken your words to heart.

    ADHD and Diabetes

    I may have to look into a keto diet then. I'm training for some sporting stuff at the moment which is my focus with nutrition but if I find myself looking more into this I'll have to see how I would get on with a keto diet and blod/vlog my journey with it to see the change

    Type 2 BG still elevated 3 days after night out

    Hey Jeff, I had a similar thing while studying at Uni. Went out, drank to much, woke up the next morning pretty sick. Kept throwing up for about 16 hours with high sugars then realised I may not be hungover. Long story short it meant a night in A&E with DKA. Do you have any symptoms apart from...

    A tale of two cities... and CCGs

    Hello everyone. I'll try to keep this brief but no doubt will fail. I grew up on the south coast and was diagnosed at Hospital A.
