[QUOTE="daphneywayfriend, post: 865074, member: 186288"] Hi rah79. I feel sad for u. I'm a type 1. When I was first diagnosed a fab nurse introduced me to the daphney way. U work out the carbs n sugars in a meal then give uself the correct amount of insulin. Its freedom. As I didn't get on with the old ideas nurses. I had a diabetes nutritionist. What a wonderful person. She recommended a book called"carbs & cals. Written by Chris cheyette & yello balolia. Its in association with diabetes uk. I learned u body needs carbs to turn into sugars for u body n Brain to get the energy to function! I also learned nothing is forbidden as long as its in moderation. It makes me angry to read about diabetics n their families starving them of carbs. Whilst a low carb diet is ok for some. It won't suit all. I have a very physical job n I need fuel so my body can do it. If u were u as an insulin dependant I'd ask about the daphney way. Don't take no for an answer as the lilly way is easy for medical staff, but u need to be in control of u life n body. As for u eye. I love Specsavers.they do lots of tests.they found I had hyperthyroid dry eye. Yes I,ve a thyroid problem. I would ask for a blood yes about that. Also in England u can change u doctor or ask for a second opinion. Let me know how u get on. Get the book" carbs n cals" its a real eye oponer. Daphneywayfriend. [/QUOTE]
