Hi - yes, Acute Pancreatitis. Thanks for feedback on the cgm - I just couldn't get my head around how it could not hurt. I can't seem to get any answers on how 2 bouts of AP have affected my diabetes - I think now being on pretty much T1 insulin dosage has me even more concerned. I've got a...

I read Keto - tarian. Cannot remember the Dr's name - fantastic insight and brilliant recipes that I'm sure can be modded to vegan from veg.

I've been told I was pre-diabetic from 2014, had AP new years in '17, told I was a T2 in '18 - and had another AP hospitalisation in '22. I've gone from metformin, then added statins x2, fenofibrate, then met had glargin added while in hospital fro 2nd AP attack. This went from initial of...

Thanks becca, I'll def give that a try - although I'm going to need to get brave on it - Diabetic nurse said to inject into my thigh but still bottled it. Didn't think about it being Lantus itself. I've got 5mm needles - I didn't know about 4mm, I'll have to see if I can get some.

Thanks to you all for some great advice and insights. I'm definitely going to make a start with 16:8 then try and go for omad - have to take the Benzofibrate with food in the morning. I was expecting low fat, 6 years ago thier was no mention of low carb so I guess things are changing for the...

Well, I've been an ultra-lurker on here for some 6 years or so - around about my first acute pancreatitis episode. Fantastic advice, measures and methods that I genuinely utilised to drop my sugar for a couple of years using low carb and keto, but on and off. As soon as I'd see pre-diabetic...
