[QUOTE="BeBeautiful, post: 1801183, member: 475332"] Hello Jenny, thanks for your reply! Thank you, I do hope the stable BG continues long term! My thyroid is due re-testing soon since I have been on the meds a little while now. My liver needs scanned and I am waiting on that, plus an appointment with the endocronologist. I am now on Metformin, so will be followed up with another HbA1c in a couple of months. My BMI was within the healthy range at testing, however I have lost a further 9lbs whilst being on the thyroid medication. Introducing more carbs now I can stomach them will hopefully stop me losing too much more. I was originally diagnosed type 2, but the doctor now seems unconvinced, he mentioned type 1.5 and then mentioned it might not be typical diabetes at all but something else causing the high blood glucose. I will just need to wait it out, but if I am somewhat able to stop it going too high and causing damage, I am happy with that for now. For the past three days I have had quite severe facial spasms, including my eyeball - I am hoping this is a normal reaction to the medication I am taking and not something more sinister! [/QUOTE]
