[QUOTE="JoKalsbeek, post: 2120653, member: 401801"] Hi Jo, The low carb is absolutely 100% spot-on, so I'm glad there's some docs finally getting clued in. I don't think you ned to contact the DVLA though, as you're not on gliclazide, a medication like it, or insulin... Metformin only keeps your liver from dumping too much glucose in the morning, it doesn't do much of anything about the foods you eat and the impact they have. [URL]https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/blog-entry/the-nutritional-thingy.2330/[/URL] is my own little quick-start guide for low carb, for more in-fepth information try dietdoctor.com , Dr Jason Fung's The Diabetes Code and this forum's website, diabetes.co.uk (Not .org!). Before your know it your bloodsugars'll come back down. And stock up on test strips for your meter, you're going to need it a lot in the time to come. (It won't always be like that though, after a while you know which foods do what.). [USER=513279]@NDP[/USER], the above might be of use to you as well. Jo, NDP, welcome to both of you. This is the moment where both of your lives and respective health, get better. :) The other Jo. [/QUOTE]
