I was diagnose with Type 2 Jan. 20th, of this year. So since February, when I got serious about my choice to do Keto, I have followed that diet strictly. My HbA1C tests have come down, as well as my daily tests, but I still have what I think are diabetic issues like numbness, tingling, and sharp pains in my feet. I had a lot of cramping early on but seemed to remedy that with magnesium supplementing, and electrolyte drops in my daily water intake. I did lose from 140 down to 117 lbs and I am 5' 2", 68 years old so I wasn't extremely over weight, but uncomfortable in those extra pounds.
I know I need to ask my MD for an Insulin test, never had that done as far as I know. Only being diagnosed as a diabetic made me get diligent about watching everything in my medical records. Some of you know and use your online-access to your records which I am so glad to have.
Maybe I am just paranoic, or some level of hypochodriac but I have a big toe right now that had some pain when I was walking a couple days ago, and now it just feels numb. Having amputation or worse, scares me so bad so I wanted to ask here, about your experience in finding out you had LADA/Type 1.5 Diabetes? Again, I will be getting that appointment shortly after I finish breakfast in a few minutes. Yes, I'm keeping the food out of my keyboard so far that is
