I am type 2 working on the lowcarb high fat regime. I have an underactive thyroid and so have difficulty losing
weight but i did working with lchf. I slipped back for awhile and got the flu/viral thing in April. My HBA1C came
back as 53 i have 2 related questions. 1. is it possible to ask for another HBA1C test or do they limit you to one
per year. 2. My blood sugar readings are usually in the high 6's sometimes 7's i am due to see a new Diabetic
Nurse soon if taking Metformin was suggested would it be good long term to take to lower blood sugar a little, or
should i try and persevere with no medication for Diabetes Type 2. I was laid low in April by the flu/viral thing
which left me with severe Sinusitis so i thought if i could ask for another HBA1C as i am not sure if illness does
make a difference with that test.
