Hi there.
I've been type 2 since 2005 and was put on insulin in December 2019. Since then I've gained 2.5 stone and my BG results are worse than ever. The docs keep increasing my insulin, which so far just seems to make me more insulin resistant, and so the vicious circle continues.
So I'm trying to break out of the cycle. Does anyone have any good suggestions on how to improve insulin resistance if you can't currently exercise (long story)?
I'm currently eating about 80g carbs a day. The hospital nurse/dietitian think I need to be eating more carbs but I find any meal of over 20g carbs sends me rocketing (like readings of over 20) even with insulin.
Thanks in advance x
