[QUOTE="KK123, post: 2355449, member: 451727"] Hi Swiggy, you have had many replies about low carbs and so on, but clearly, from what you say, your glucose levels are still high. I would be regularly contacting your GP to get that C Peptide test done (and also antibody tests). IF you are type 1, whether it's lada (slower onset) or full blown as it were requiring immediate treatment, then you need insulin, it's as simple as that. Amounts may vary and there is such a thing as a honeymoon period too even after diagnosis, but it seems for now, no amount of low carb foods is going to get your current levels down to normal levels. It's potentially dangerous, have you been able to test for ketones? Also, I was diagnose as pre diabetic 3 years before a diagnosis of type 1 and it's believed that this was actually a slow onset of type 1, NOT a pre type 2. [/QUOTE]
