Please excuse my drama but I could just sit and greet (Scottish fer cry).
I was diagnosed T2 five years ago. I took the bull by the horns went LCHF and moved my ample backside.
I lost weight, felt soooo much better and put my T2 in remission.
It wasn’t to last... I then piled back on loads of weight, sat on my back side and let it all get out of control again.
I went to my GP in Feb feeling like , after a BG test I got a see me now call, the results weren’t good.
She suggested I take Metformin and alter my diet.
This time I couldn’t get my BG under control with diet only, so gave in and took the Metformin.
Then began the race with the devil, I couldn’t control my stomach, the diawotsit and stomach pains were awful. My GP then gave me Metformin SR, I was ok for a while then the diawotsit hit again.
Over lockdown I managed to lose around 10kg but since all the stomach issues have blown up again I’m eating a lot of rubbish.
It’s pure comfort eating I know that.
I’m fed up and ready for a right good bubble.
My GP called today to ask me to make an appointment for an ac1test , which I have tomorrow, with results and further discussion with my GP there after.
I’m dreading it, I can’t live with this constant upset tummy - I’m fed up with it, and now she wants to add in statins.
Someone please give me some hope.
