[QUOTE="Robbity, post: 2037734, member: 93179"] What medication - if any - are you taking for your T2 - I was prescribed metformin for a while and there are no compatibility issues with this and propranolol. I've been taking propranolol as a preventative for chronic migraines for many years and was diagnosed with T2 just under five and a half years ago. I've not had any issues with it since I've been T2 and neither does my GP have any concerns over prescribing it. However insulin dependent (usually T1) diabetics may have issues with propranolol if they experience very lcw glucose levels or hypos as [USER=243483]@bobcurly[/USER] has mentioned - see [URL]https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6376017[/URL] I've been eating a low carb/ketogenic diet for most of my T2 "life" and as well as reducing and controlling my glucose levels this style of eating has also more or less stopped my migraines completely. Other members on the forum have had similar experiences with low carbing, so it may be worth you considering this to see if it helps you with your migraines too. Robbity [/QUOTE]
