[QUOTE="hanadr, post: 127009, member: 8110"] Actually, ICAN manage without meds. I have tried it. I have to be very strict on the low carb, but it's possible. I choose to take minimal Metformin to give myself a little latitude on diet. After almost 7 years, I only use 2 x 500mg Metformin per day. Istarted on medication, when first diagnosed, because Ididn't know i could do without and was never given the option. I never suggested it would be easy, but there are so many like me who are put on to medication, without being told there's's a dietary alternative. Nearly 7 years ago, I started on 3 x 500mg Metformin and 1 x 40mg Gliclazide per day. I was told to eat "normally" and that 10 was my maximum BG. Now I know better Hana PS I was told my requirement for medication would gradually increase and would inevitably lead to my needing insulin. No sign of that so far H [/QUOTE]
