I'd like to say a huge thank you to the Forum, and everyone here. Although the standard of healthcare is actually very good here in Bulgaria, (I self-referred to the bloods lab at 8 am, took the results to my GP at 11:30, and walked into the Endocrinologist at 2 pm all in the same day) there's very little information available in English, so the Forums have been my lifeline. Without you I would never have learned about the LCHF diet, which has made a huge difference in just five weeks.
Here's my numbers:
Metformin 3 x 850mg, now reduced to 2 x 500mg
Weight 8 Kilos (17 pounds) off
Blood Pressure down from 168/108 average to 112/81 average (no meds)
HbA1c down from 8.3% to 6.0%
Fasting BG from 13.2 to 5.46
Triglycerides down from 5.76 MMOL/L to 2.0
All of which has left a huge grin on my face.
So thank you everyone, here's to continuing progress
Keith

Keep grinning Karona. You have done exceedingly well. It's also nice to know that you can get such rapid treatment. May it remain so.
