[QUOTE="Kat100, post: 438831"] Hi Jess, sorry to hear that you have t2 it is a shock, it happened to me one year ago but I had also been feeling really unwell, did not know why at the time... My health practice foes not support testing fot t2, having regular blood tests, have lowered blood sugars one year on to good management, I didn't have a lot of sugar, now I use a substititue what ever you wish, I don't do low carb and I have gone low sugar, but now know the symptoms.....I am 6.5 last readings.... I don't do low carb diet, but I have reduced my carbs a lot, portion size has reduced along with metformin. I see a dietitein and get great gp support, one who understands this condition. I also find this site good, but it did confuse me at first, now i feel so much more at home here, but have learnt to do what works for me, and my body everyone has suggestions which are great to read, but you must do what is right for you.... Yes take the metformin slowly, you may be offered a course as well... Hope I have helped a little just by sharing my experience...tc and keep us posted, it's all new, look after yourself best wishes Kat [/QUOTE]
