Yep as soon as I was told I was pre diabetic I found this forum and website, as I knew very little about diabetes really, other than monitoring my levels when I’d had gestational. I had my old metre from then so was able to start testing before and after and times when felt ill or they where v high. Took the info with me to following gp appointments. I follow a reduced carb higher fat Mediterranean diet. It’s been great! I do need meds too as this year got the results positive antibodies. Both combined I’ve had my first in range hba1c since 2018.@Rose22 this forum is likely to be far more help than any course. Are you testing before and after eating?
I did attend the type 2 1 day course at my local hospital, where a dn explained type 2 and then a dietician explained food, that part was very disappointing and confusing.
