Measuring two (venous) values above 11 is enough to diagnose diabetes, so your doctor is clearly wrong. I think you're hitting the nail on the head with the example of Special K, your doctor's claims are clearly ridiculous. Maybe change to a different GP? Unfortunately, low carb diets for diabetes is a rather new idea and still controversial to many doctors. I think you should continue to low carb and try go get a new GP. I hope that does not cost money. I agree with you, that getting the pharmacy to do the reading does not offer much, the doctor will not care much.By the way, I'm not a doctor myself, but I have a master's degree in human biology, so I can read all the same literature the doctors do..</blockquote>
