[QUOTE="ziggy_w, post: 2136615, member: 323454"] Hello all, Had an appointment with my GP yesterday to discuss next week's blood tests. He will only do an HbA1c this time and a full blood panel next time in March/April. I also mentioned that I felt a bid awkward to have every referral (to another health care service) state diabetic with an HbA1c of 100 (11.3%), even though my blood sugars have been in the normal range for the last four years. Argued this was problematic as this led other HCPs to focus on diabetes first as a possible cause of anything. He consequently agreed to change the diagnosis if I maintain normal blood sugars for one more year. As a side note, he also mentionend that T2 is still considered a progressive chronic disease by virtually all HCPs in Germany. An interesting discussion resulted regarding how to deal with contradictory research results. It seems he is regularly meeting with other GPs to keep up to date with recent research -- seems I have found a good one. So, bloods scheduled for next Tuesday morning -- expecting similar results as last time. On another note, took [USER=308541]@Tipetoo[/USER] 's recommendation;) to have cake anytime of the day. Yesterday ... Breakfast: Two double decaffeinated espressos with cream and erythritol. A slice of egg liqueur cake. Two hours later: Another slice of egg liqueur cake. Around 4 p.m.: A small bowl of homemade soup, a DD keto roll, half with chili-lime mayonnaise (finally ordered some) and smoked salmon, the other half with garlic mayonnaise and cheddar. ... and you guessed it ... another slice of cake:). One and half glasses of wine throughout the evening and one babybel cheese. [USER=345386]@DCUKMod[/USER] -- Am really impressed with your yoghurt and cream cheese making skills. Have contemplated making yoghurt from whipping cream (I think you call it heavy cream in the UK). Do you have any experience with this? Sorry for the long post. [/QUOTE]
