[QUOTE="Fraddycat, post: 334010, member: 46145"] Hi Daz, I don't think ketones by themselves in a T2 diabetic is a cause for concern, as you say its your body burning fat instead of food. Maybe of us follow a ketogenic diet to control our diabetes and so I regularly test for and find ketones. (Ketones in a T1 can be a pretty serious so I think that might be what the links above are referring to). However it is concerning that you cannot eat or drink, what a horrible nightmare. Surely that will make you a lot sicker than a few ketones. Are you able to tollerate meal replacement shakes? Nutrients, vitamins and minerals are the first things to be used by the body so even though the ketosis is fuelling your body a shake could give you the essential other bits you need. [/QUOTE]
