[QUOTE="DCUKMod, post: 2085068, member: 345386"] [USER=494805]@CrumblingWall[/USER] , my position would be to firstly ask whether the prospect of eaating more carbs appeals to you, or whether it's somewhere you would rather not go. Assuming, for argument's sake, you increased the carbs, dose your doctor intend to conducting any other investigations, or is it just she doesn't really get, or go with the LC lifestyle? In your shoes, I could be inclined to have a couple of Libre, to view my peaks and troughs under usual living. Testing at 1 hour, two hours or even longer will never show the whole picture in a way that the 24/7 x 14 days, reading every 15 minutes. My A1cs have been dancing around 30 for the last 5 years and prior to using Libre, I was confident in what my body did, and how it reacted to various things - not just dietary, but sleep, stress, being under the weather and so on. I learned a great deal from the Libre and consider any sensors I have used to be an investment in my long term wellbeing. Of course, that said, I did have a definite Type 2 diagnosis. I can't suggest what you do. It's more complex than a few carbs I think. [/QUOTE]
