[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 2172991, member: 355878"] If you can't find a doctor locally you might use your online skills to locate a copy of Dr Atkins New Diet Revolution for your friend - I like the 2003 edition, but they all have good information. They used to be available for very little money some years ago. It is not as though eating low carb is, of itself, dangerous - a list of low carb options and a blood glucose meter should suffice for most people once the concept is grasped.... Low carbing can mean that medication needs to be reduced - tablets for high blood pressure is a common one, but a visit to the prescribing surgery should sort that out. Worth it just to see the expression on the testers face. Even more amusing when they go out and get another meter because theirs is showing normal so it must be faulty. [/QUOTE]
