[QUOTE="Carrotxo, post: 2472690, member: 551726"] Thank you for your replies everyone. Yes I am overweight. At the time of being diagnosed I was doing Keto and had lost 4 stone. I was told by 2 doctors I saw that I had to stop keto as it wasn’t healthy. Since then I’ve put the weight back on. I’m a bit worried about doing keto again as I have essential hypertension (been waiting 2 years to see cardiologist as my referral was lost due to pandemic) and also has my most recent ecgs (which I also had to pester for) were abnormal. I’ve never had c-peptide but I don’t think it would be Type 1 because my weight and I believe my biological mother has Type 2. I’m sort of a fussy eater/eat too much processed food as I’m often depressed and lack motivation. In terms of food I probably have more like a child’s diet. I’m not sure which diet to do? For dinner tonight for example I had microwave rice and pre-cooked chicken pieces. My BG 2 hours later is 21.5. the Metformin I will start taking tomorrow morning. I am meant to increase it over 3 weeks to 4 tablets a day. But earlier in the year I was hospitalised for stomach issues and I’m worried it’s gonna make my existing issues worse. Apologies this post is kind of all over the place. Thank you again. [/QUOTE]
