[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 2352725, member: 196898"] Sad that you fell under the wagon over Christmas and ate comfort food. But realistically do you have any options here? You know what lowering carbs do for you, you tested out the meter so it is definitely doing its thing ok, so use both of those to get the numbers down again. A carb binge can charge up the liver and do real harm quite quickly, but once charged, it will work against you for weeks before you deplete your built-up stored glucose, so take up the challenge and surprise your doctor in March. Remember that the HbA1c is a tally of the previous 3 months on a rolling average, so the sooner you start the better. You did it before and should be able to rinse and repeat. You should get your thyroid checked out again to make sure the meds are keeping it happy and its not being over medicated. There are other diabetes meds in the toolkit nowadays, so insulin is a last resort for a T2D. But diet can be very powerful if used sensibly, [/QUOTE]
