So was diagnosed t2 last Feb, almost immediately went onto Lchf, reduced my blood sugars to an extent that the doctors have basically said that you are not diabetic any longer, but we will see you every year for blood work etc. I had eye screening last April, which was totally clear. I saw the opticians a month ago who said that my eyes were really healthy and absolutely no sign of diabetes.
Had my eye screening again last week and apparently I have 'background retinopathy'.
How reliable is the screening?! They say I should aim to control my sugars ( I do!) and have regular diabetes checks (once a year ), what else should I do - ask for an hba1c sooner?!
