Hi,I'm Emma, 46,diagnosed with diabetes type 2 approximately 3 years ago. Initially prescribed gliclazide,then metformin added in and shortly afterwards byetta pen injections twice daily. With dietary changes and increased exercise things were going well and last year after blood tests the gp advised me to reduce the meds,it even looked like I might be able to manage without them. However it's not to be,sugar levels are slightly high at the moment so now on just metformin, twice daily 500mg(2) morning and evening. Looking forward to hearing about other people's experiences and I hope to learn some tips here,especially interested in particular foods that are 'good' for diabetes.
