Type of diabetes
Treatment type
Diet only
I come from a family who all have diabetes, 2 members have died from diabetic complications, I've been pre-diabetic for 30+ years but also diagnosed with ms and asthma since 1988.

Over the last 3 years I've been diagnosed with Sacroliitic arthritis, colitis and now I'm diabetic.

My problem now is with the colitis I am unable to eat any fibre, which I should eat for the diabetes. This is going to be fun balancing these 2 diets.

You don't need to eat fibre for diabetes.
It's carbs that raise blood glucose so reducing carbs is what helps with diabetes.

What kind of diet do you need for your colitis?

Have a read of this blog by one of our members, it explains the basics of T2, and it might give you a start into finding foods that suit both colitis and diabetes.
