Hi All,

I'm new to this forum. I been getting alot of abscesses on my inner thighs and end up getting surgery. I was told that I suffer from Hydradenisitis however I think its my diabetes. My sugar levels are not controlled I hover around the 10 mark.

I'm struggling to control my diabetes i'm a vegetarian that eats no eggs or fish so find it hard to get a balanced meal. I avoid all sugary stuff.

Look forward to your help and advise.

Hi and welcome. :)
I am sure you will get plenty of help here, and we have a thriving vegetarian section of the forum, some of whom have very similar eating habits to you, so I am sure they will be able to advise you.

Your profile says that you are on oral medication. Could you let us know what that is?
It may affect the responses you get, because people will try and tailor their answers to suit your situation.

Do you have a meter so you can test before and after eating? or is the 10 you mentioned an HbA1c result?
