Diuretics and diabetes.

Thanks Mamie, I have already started the low carb diet. I have both Michael Mosley's book and the 5:2 recipe book, so I have enough to be going on with.I will join you on the low- card thread. I need ideas for Easter as we are going to stay with my daughter who is an excellent cook.

BBbevan my OH, like many others, has completely reversed Type 2 by a low-carb diet.
Here is a link from Diabetes UK about the work of the GP Dr David Unwin.

If you are interested, come and join us on the low-carb thread.
The Diabetes UK forums are worth a look too.
Obviously you need to be guided by your GP.

I'm sorry you have had this news but the cause may well be nothing to do with the diuretics. What does your doctor say about it? I hope you GPS will have a management plan in mind for you. I would be sticking closely to that and signing myself up with Diabetes UK which give excellent support, education and advice.
