Hello all, am coming into the second month of being diagnosed type 2 and thought I had every thing under control. Went straight onto Lchf diet, have already lost 11lbs in weight have managed to go into ketosis and stay there and bg levels were averaging 5.9 and less.
Have had eyes tested, and had quick visit with diabetic nurse who told me not to test has arranged for me to attend a Desmond course in the future and sent me on my way.. No bloods, no follow up appointment just we will be in toucch..
Was told not to test and haven't got a machine but work allow me to borrow one at the weekend ( I work in Drs surgery) to test.
Anyway to cut what could be a long rambling story short this weekend I haven't got my bg levels below 6.9 my fasting blood this morning was 9.1 and 2 hours after breakfast of full fat yogurt with raspberries ( about 4) and a coffee with cream it is 8.9.
Am I wrong to be upset and just overly sensitive or am I doing something wrong.
Any advice much appreciated, feel very much on my own and don't to become a diabetic bore with my woes, have tried to be very up beat til now
