Guest, we'd love to know what you think about the forum! Take the Diabetes Forum Survey 2025 »

Message: <blockquote data-quote="viviennem" data-source="post: 339623" data-attributes="member: 31282">Many people will tell you that diabetes is progressive, and it is for some, but diabetes care has improved so much that, if you work with your GP team and take control of the dear disease, IMHO you may never get complications, or they are a very long way in the future. The key is to keep tight control of your blood glucose levels; has your GP given you a blood glucose monitor and test strips? They are essential for learning which foods you can and cannot eat. In my case I cannot handle much carbohydrate, so I avoid that as much as possible. The NHS-recommended diet does not work for me - it pushes my blood glucose too high. We are all different!Do let us know how you get on with your review, and the results. Plenty of support and good advice on here!  <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /> Viv  8)</blockquote>
