I was diagnosed as type 2 in September. I am trying to control my diabetes by diet and exercise. I have come from 85 to 46 and my glucose levels are now around 5.5 - 6 before meals and about 7 -7.5 after. My doctor tells me that this is just a "honeymoon" that will not last for long. He says it will be tablets first for a while and then insulin injections. (I am needle phobic and pricking my finger to test is quite an ordeal for me, yes, I am a coward.) Is this so? If you control in this way how long has it lasted? Feeling a bit low about this as I have tried so hard. Any comments/experiences welcome.
