I have polycystic ovaries, but my doctor said a recent scan shows no follicles/cysts on my ovaries. They have carried out various tests, but still no positive pregnancy tests!I have issues with my stomach bloating and gluten and dairy free seems to prevent it, but I am living off next to nothing when I avoid both things. I am vegan and do not eat eggs or fish.Today, my doctor told me he thinks its my blood sugars. Now, I am really stuck because I don't find my diabetes nurse or dietician helpful. I am hoping someone can give me some advice on my diet and blood sugars...My most recent hbac1 was 55 which is the lowest it has ever been.I am on lantus 10 units am and pm and apidra 1 unit per 10 grams of carbs or sometimes 1 and a half. I also take two metformin tablets in the evening. On a typical day, this is what I eat:8am Banana 2units11am Salt and vinegar hula hoops no insulin1pm a handful of walnuts7pm homemade chips with beans or toast with branston pickle and lactose free cheese or veg curry3 to 4 pints of water during the dayI am staying away from takeaways and restaurants as they shoot my blood sugars up to 18!!!Cup of green tea10pm sometimes a snack - gluten free crispbread with peanut butter.Am I doing anything wrong?</blockquote>
