[QUOTE="croftmanor, post: 170985, member: 17684"] Hi There welcome to the forum ! i can only speak from a male point of view but i think that type 2 diabetes is more to do with middle age than any other major changes in body chemistry, but thats only a guess!!! there will be someone along with a lot more knowlege and experience to give some advice I'm sure, in the meantime sounds like you have been doing all the right things anyway, its mostly about common sense and sensible diet, i know it took me a while to realise that my medication wasn't an excuse to have the foods i shouldn't thinking it would take care of things, and it was only when i adjusted my diet that my blood figures really started to drop to realistic levels, at the last check my levels were at 6.1 so am happy with that but ideally i would like to be in the 5's but my doctor did reduce my metformin and changed me to the slow release tablets and that really sorted the horrible side effects !!! any other questions please just post them, usually someone who can answer them best regards Crofty [/QUOTE]
