Hi,
Does anyone have any experience with reversing T2D from the starting point of HbA1c of 88?
Rather than start insulin I have decided to try the LCHF route. I had reduced my meds to metformin only, however have found that is severely upsetting my stomach now I am fasting (varying 24, 30 ,48 hours) and keeping my daily carbs to <30g so have had to stop taking it.
My early morning sugar reading is now 20 - even after a 36hr fast - although I feel ok?
I just wondered if anyone had any experiences where they are now further on the journey and can give me some information on their journey - not advise just info.
I want to give this a 6 month trial as I only started in mid January and have read a lot of success stories but they didn't talk of how long the journey and whether they had this high a level in the morning and how long berfore it came down.
I totally understand that everyone is different but just a bit of info from anyone who has been through a similar journey would be very much appreciated.
Thanks
