[QUOTE="EllieM, post: 2390064, member: 372717"] I'm sure some expert T2s will be along soon but I'd still be watching the overall carbs as well as the proteins. I guess it will allow you to lose some more weight if you limit protein as well. Have you got a blood testing meter? An initial hba1c of 52 is relatively low on the T2 scale so you can possibly up your carbs slightly and use the meter to tell whether you've overdone it, but you have to be careful because if your blood sugar goes too high (above 10) then sugar passes into your urine and that damages your kidneys. Personally, I'd still go very light on the grains, pasta, rice, potatoes. Looks like there are still plenty of non carby items on that list. Albuminaria can be a sign of early kidney disease which is why they will be repeating the test. But I've had quite a few positive ones just caused by a urinary tract infection, so it does not necessarily mean that you have kidney disease. Good luck. I hope your doctor gets to the bottom of your symptoms. [/QUOTE]
