Trying to get an appointment with an endocrinologist here is like asking for peace on this earth. I agree, diets and D2 are related. Digestive issues in general have a consequence on our systems for DM 1 and 2 in general. Pre DM I was on a Mediterranean diet for the longest time. I love Lebanese food, but it didn’t help prevent my diabetes. My intestines are likely damaged from the coeliac, especially as I had duodenal ulcers. They kept testing for H Pylori,  but all the tests were negative. 3 x I got tested for the bacteria, all negative. I know this bacteria causes big problems in the gut. It would be interesting to see how many people with Type 2 have H pylori in their gut. It’s interesting that we both are lactose intolerant. Lactose intolerance usually walks alongside Coeliac as does fructose intolerance. As I have said before, I’ve been lactose intolerant for decades, but it didn’t go away when I went 100% gluten free, unlike my fructose intolerance which did go away.</blockquote>
