[QUOTE="EllieM, post: 2259564, member: 372717"] That's a big increase for just 4 months. (from 42mmol/L to 75mmol/L) Many folk on these forums have started with higher levels and reduced them to normal by low carbing. Good luck, and don't forget that T1/LADA has the same symptoms as T2, but needs different treatment. If your levels go down but then start going back up (without an increase in carbs) you need to push your GP to give you the c-peptide and GAD tests. (I am guessing he/she is fairly old fashioned because your hba1c was given to you in old style units (a %) rather than mmol/L (which has been used in the UK since 2011). [/QUOTE]
