Stumbled across this forum by accident and so pleased I have!

I am 28 and was diagnosed with Type 2 in October. I was not having any regular symptoms but this last week have felt a bit pap so am going to docs tomorrow. He had mentioned starting me on Metformin next time I go (was meant to be August) which I was worried about but after reading posts on this forum am feeling ok with it. (Took me a few days to decide I was goin back to the docs like!)
I am already a low-carber (apart from sometimes on a weekend) as I have always preferred this way of eating and exercise a lot but that has worried me as I think how come if I am eating no sugar then I am getting symptoms anyway.
I have found the advice given from my nurse and dietician a bit useless - telling me to eat lots of carbs basically which I think is nonsense!
Will see what tomorrow brings (trying not to worry!).

Looking forward to using the advice I have found on this site!
