Hi! I am Totto, still prediabetic!

[Totto]

Hi!
I am a middle-aged woman with thyroid problems, problems with my GP and problems with insulin resistance. Oh, and hot flushes are problems too! I am also convinced I don't need to progress to overt diabetes any time soon if I keep off anything with carbs.

In my family we are all type 2. Dad died at the age of 72 with diabetes complications. Mum is 92 with diabetes t2. Brother is t2. I am pre.We do have all kinds of autoimmune diseases but not t1, happily.
