Was diagnosed T2 at the beginning of Feb hba1c 52 and put on to 2 x metformin twice a day (500mg). Told not to test bg and left to get on with it.
Thankfully found this forum and straight away went Lchf, within a few weeks started to feel better and noticed bg levels were coming down( borrowed a meter).
The last few weeks however whenever I eat I feel sick so am trying to only have one meal a day, can't stop going toilet and feel utterly miserable. Wondering if high bg levels could be causing this. Can't test as I don't have access to a meter and husband is being made redundant so cannot afford to get one (mortgage to pay).
Just wondering what people's thoughts were,
Have cut out bread, pasta,wheat, rice etc.
Yesterday I had nothing for breakfast and lunch and for dinner I had slices of roast lamb and kale.
