Frankly I no longer care that it's not our job to tell it like it is (sorry Mike!)
Your doctor and nurse are completely irresponsible to tell you to eat empty carbs when you are already diabetic and intolerant to those foods.
Dell84, you are absolutely right in what you are doing. Anyone who tells you otherwise wasn't paying attention in 1st year medical school and ought to be ashamed of themselves.
Thank you ,Fergus.They can be a bit full on though!This is the first forum I have ever been on,I found it because I typed the wrong address into the bar at the top.

your Guardian angel obviously directed you here to save you from being murdered by stupid dietary advice. If they try coercing you again, ask them to go back to their undergrad textbooks and check that carbs are NOT necessary in the human diet.. Also get a copy of Dr. Bernstein's diabetes solution and read it to boost your confidence. Bernstein is our bible and he forbids his patients any more than 30g carb per day. What you found for yourself is correct. Carbs put your blood sugar up! You don't need them. They WILL even up your BG levels, at consistently high.
