[QUOTE="TooManyCrisps, post: 1078074, member: 244689"] [FONT=Arial]Hello AllanE. I'm very new to this as well, but my GP did give me some good advice (but no meds!). There is someone on here, [USER=25759]@daisy1[/USER], who will post some very helpful advice for you. I don't feel able to give you advice, but I can tell you that when I was diagnosed (7 weeks ago) I read lots of information on this forum and learned a lot about low carb diets (as opposed to low sugar, which is only part of the problem). I also bought myself a test meter so I can see what foods affect my blood glucose readings. I'm still trying to figure it out but am hopeful I'll be able to get my readings down. I've already lost 16lbs in weight and am sleeping much better so the low carb diet is helping me in lots of ways. If you read up on the advice here, ask lots of questions (people are very happy to answer and share their experiences) and try to work out what affects you, then hopefully you will see your levels come down and your health improve. Good luck[/FONT] [/QUOTE]
