[QUOTE="Cocosilk, post: 2082310, member: 501623"] Gotta keep asking I think. I saw a new GP today and while filling out the new patient forms I also proudly added and circled "low carb" as my special diet. They had low fat, vegetatian, and other medical ones but no low carb either. I also had to do A LOT of persuading to get my doctor to write a script for a HOMA-IR (insulin) test that I was hoping to do at the same time as my next GTT. She was really reluctant saying that the current way of diagnosing diabetes is evidence based, which I was not disputing anyway. I'd just read on the Diet Doctor that knowing your insulin levels is useful to know if you are insulin resistant due to a low carb diet or actually prediabetic. Will be harder for me to get a clear picture while eating low carb and breastfeeding as both can lower you blood glucose. Anyway, we'll see if I get away with it. [/QUOTE]
