I’m not able to exercise due to disabling illness but have still been able to bring my HbA1C into non-diabetic range through medication (not metformin) and low carb and plan to come off medication soon, so there is hope of bringing it down even if you can’t exercise. Sounds like you do need to get the thyroid sorted and that a new doctor might not be a bad idea, but could perhaps look at cutting more carbs in the meantime?
Oh, also: counterintuitive I know, but often protein helps bring down my bg, especially if I’ve gone too long without eating for my liver’s liking!
I can’t cut my carbs too much as I have coeliacs disease and can’t eat dairy either. I was sent to a dietician because I kept having low blood glucose at that stage, because there was no gluten to slow down how quickly I digested it. Now I seem to have gone the other way. Can’t win. Couldn’t even think straight when my glucose got to 2.3
