[QUOTE="pleinster, post: 1167238, member: 221545"] I have managed to get my levels down into the pre-diabetic area purely through low carb dieting and being very strict (ok..not so strict coz croissants are lovely), and my specialist says that I am "effectively in remission"...by which he means keeping things as they are has the same impact as though I were in remission. Of course I am NOT. I have Type 2 diabetes as a result of steroid treatment following a transplant...it having had nothing at all to do with my lifestyle, and I have no doubt at all that should I up my carb intake my blood sugar will go up accordingly. I actually now view the whole thing as a carbohydrate intolerance and expect to have to maintain my approach...otherwise, miraculously, I shall find myself oddly..diabetic again! Anyone who says anything else is either selling something or just plain wrong. It is absolutely manageable, but until lovely advanced aliens get here...it is not curable. [/QUOTE]
