I was diagnosed at the beginning of October as Type 2 diabetic. I am going for my three month blood test tomorrow. Eeeek! At diagnosis I was 18.8.
I shouldn't be concerned as my levels are good, for example pre dinner they are in the mid 4's and post dinner they are top end 5's on average. So I think I will be ok. But I keep worrying that my home tests may not relate to what I get from the HBA1C. I was offered Metformin at my first appointment but turned it down in favour of giving LCHF a go. I like it, it is keeping my numbers down and I am losing weight.
