Guest, we'd love to know what you think about the forum! Take the Diabetes Forum Survey 2025 »

Message: <blockquote data-quote="JoKalsbeek" data-source="post: 2455793" data-attributes="member: 401801">I'm a little surprised your numbers are that high on your current diet, which is leaning more towards carnivore from the sound of it, than keto. Can you give an exact breakdown of your meals and drinks in a single day? I get you've been on keto before, so you know what you're doing, but just in case... While nutritional ketosis is perfectly fine (If it wasn't, I would've been dead for years now), diabetic ketoacidosis could be problematic if it's not the diet that's bringing the ketones up, but rather a lack of insulin production... Have you lost weight without trying prior to diagnosis? I think it'd be really, really worth it to request a GAD and a C-peptide test to check whether you truly are a T2. Because if you're not, things could turn ugly quite fast if all you're on is metformin. Maybe put in a call to ask for those sooner rather than later.Good luck eh.  Jo</blockquote>
