[QUOTE="EllieM, post: 2437489, member: 372717"] I'm not a doctor, but I think the high (?) cpeptide also rules out LADA, because after 5 years your insulin production would be low not high. Do you want/need to lose weight? If so, low carbing would probably help, because weight gain is a side effect of high bgs and excess insulin. There is a vegetarian subforum to the low carb forums here so it may be worth a look. What are your levels like on the current regime? High bgs would cause tiredness. My understanding is that weight loss (if appropriate), low carb and exercise all help with insulin resistance. And there are a whole raft of new or newish T2 drugs which might be appropriate for you, depending on what your doctor says. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
