A few months ago, my husband who is Type 2 suffered a stroke which the neuro consultant put down to him having had a very high result from his A1c . He was put onto additional medication,Glic , but then, because he changed his diet to LCHF , he began to suffer regular hypos so he was told to just stay on Metformin . I went with him for the result of his A1c which he had two weeks ago , it is now 49 which is amazing, the nurse practitioner was gobsmacked to say the least, just shows what difference three months can make :) Not only is he making a good recovery from the stroke, but now he has the encouragement and drive to carry on with the regime, just needed to share :)
