    Checking In 3 Weeks After Diagnosis.

    Just checking is as I have the double bubble of T2D newly diagnosed, which has occurred due to liver damage, which the Dr feels is a knock-on effect from my Hashimoto's thyroiditis. I know I am rubbish at dieting. I know the only way I am going to manage this is to adapt my lifestyle choices...

    Good morning!

    Hi, well they finally got me down as Type 2 after 20 odd years of trying. 3 weeks ago a random HbA1c test had me at 7.1% 54. They wanted me back 2 weeks later to confirm diagnosis. Today the results are 6.8% 51. I know I could still have a lot of sweet blood cells in my body. I don't understand...
