[QUOTE="frankman, post: 1267191, member: 138000"] Hello friends, I haven't been here for a long time. Most of 2016, I've spent being concerned about heart disease and prostate cancer. Of course I haven't ignored my diabetes, I recently attended a 6 week EPP course for diabetes. I caught half of the Panorama programme, so I'll watch it again on iplayer. I suppose the programme gave a miserable attitude towards diabetes. But then, I wasn't horrified by it. Rather I felt it was a wake up call. My father passed away from diabetic complications 4 years ago. So it is up to me to ensure that I don't end up as he did. At present my diabetes is under good control, even though I'm rather overweight. As has already been mentioned on here, my GP once advised me to cut down on my blood testing. Well, because I've got other things on my mind, I simply forget about it and don't bother! Yes, I'm wrong in doing this, but I don't think I'm harming myself. I haven't tried low carb, but will look into it. By the way, as I'm half Italian, I love pasta, but I don't eat it every day! Frank. [/QUOTE]
