Unfortunately, early this year, he had a bleed which has left some blood inside his eye and is interfering with his vision. He's due to have surgery on it in 10 days time. He's had a lot of diabetes related problems recently and I've finally managed to get him to control it better. It's paying off. Even his damaged kidneys are "stable". the eyes too are stable and the prognosis for the operation is excellent. It's definitely all down to good control. AND the NHS and DUK definition of Good, isn't good enough. Good control is non-diabetic levels almost, if not all the time. Unfortunately, although T2 control without insulin is in some ways harder than with insulin use, Insulin users run the risks of Hypos. This may be where studying Bernstein may hold your answers.</blockquote>
