[QUOTE="HSSS, post: 1979231, member: 480869"] My son’s birthday. Got a phone call from the diabetic nurse with the result telling me I was officially now a diabetic and needed to come in for medications. She seemed far to cheerful about it for my liking. Not a total shock as I knew something was making me feel shattered constantly but that was my only classic symptom. It was the latest in a terrible run of health issues over the last few years and I was a mix of resigned to yet another issue and in denial, blaming those other issues for stressing my body and squeewing the results. They probably were the straw that broke the camels back but I now know I’d been getting pre d and even D fasting glucose results for years without being told. I immediately started googling ways to manage it and found this forum and other low carb recommendations. Oddly when I told the same nurse the following week I wanted to try lifestyle changes she also recommended low carb and this site in contrast to her initial advice on the phone. [/QUOTE]
