[QUOTE="ert, post: 2388668, member: 504712"] [USER=31377]@searley[/USER] deteriorated onto insulin within 6 months after diagnosis. He was treated as a type 1 even if his GP notes said something different. The clinical notes suggest 6 years as the longest diagnosis for Lada and 3 years for clinical type 1 before insulin is required. This is why GP's won't offer the referral. The honeymoon period even if your body is producing trace insulin-like mine, will still require insulin. The 'may' require insulin, is just that the GP is recommending it and the blood sugars are very high and they are not eating carbs or much food. Even if it's in the short term. I'm afraid, even though there are a lot of LCHF people on the forum like me, GP's still issuing more medication rather than recommending low carb diets for type 2 patients or blood sugar glucometer testing. A low-calorie diet between 800 to 1200 calories is a new recommendation. [URL]https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/type-2-diabetes/food-and-keeping-active/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
