[QUOTE="Jaylee, post: 2316186, member: 101136"] Hi, Welcome to the forum. Been following your topic regarding your "to be or not to be" diagnosis. Wow! You are getting great advice from the above comments. Diet doctor is a great go to. There are also carb counts (as well as the nutritional info.) in a lot of modern cook books & websites for reference too? If you like to cook. I even found a decent LC (pending on tollerace levels.) dish in a Jamie Oliver book. Checking the carb content if eyeing up the "of which are sugars" bit finds it's snapping at the heels of the carb numbers? You may find a quicker BG spike.? In breif with your nan's insulin regime. Could be outdated T1 advice with the carbs.? (Appreciated your nan is T2.) There is a misconception with some DSNs that exogenous insulin only works with carbs? Other advice as an insulin user when on fixed dosage if I was having a lotta lows, "eat more carbs to fix it." Snack here, snack there, snack before bed.. There was never any mention from an HCP of actually looking at the insulin dosage? Regarding your eyes. Feel free to check out the ophthalmology topics. It is possible to turn "background retinopathy" around successfully with proper BG management? Best wishes. [/QUOTE]
