the standard medical advice is so wrong.
type 2 is genetic, you didn't cause it. fact
since govermental advice changed in the 70s to say low fat was good for you diabetes increased. fact
the complications from T2 diabetes comes from high blood sugars. fact
high blood sugars are caused by eating sugars and starchy carbohydrates . fact
what do docs reccomend you eat. sugars and starchy carbohydrates. fact
every single doctor should be force fed into an education, because what they are doing now is causing diabetics to lose life and limbs for no bloody good reason apart from their predetermined doctrine of fat is bad for you. I hate doctors to death, and all it takes is a modicom of scientific research and mathematical knowledge to know your average gp is thick as the proverbial porcine poop.

None of the above "facts" have been made to me by any of my DSNs or the diabetic centre in Manchester. Their dietary advice is basically all things in moderation. They do NOT advise to eat predominantly carbohydrates and starchy foods, neither do they insist on a low fat diet. In fact the other day I got a bollocking for telling them I had half a pint of Tropicana orange juice in the morning.
I'm afraid your dislike for GPs and the like have damaged any objectivity you may have had.
None of the 'advice' you have given is safe for a newly diagnosed patient and given that this is exactly what the OP is I recommend that you recuse yourself from this thread as your advice could be dangerous.
PS Type 2 can be genetic and hereditary, it isn't in all cases. Also I don't see anywhere in this thread where anyone has been told that they "caused" their own diabetes. Having said that, obesity can be and is a common causative factor.
you are wrong peanut, simple is not a cause, it' an effect, same as a lot of problems with diabetes, it's effects, not causes, simple thing to do is keep ya blood sugars low and most do sort themselves out.

type 2 here as well, and can guarantee we still have loads of fun :-)
If ya want any advice, my PM box is always open. And as for listening to doctors, it's probably the worse thing you can do mad :x

as a type 1 diabetic and a specialist practitioner in general practice specialising in chronic disease i refute this listen to those that kinow what they talk about and have experience of the disease dont listen to fable fiction pre concieved ideas but fact.
refute all you like, but the fact is, the general advice given to type 2 diabetics is so profoundly wrong it's bordering on criminal negligence. The dietary recommendations given from the UKDA and ADA is more likely to cause the complications then solve them. I take no medications, and rarely raise my bs above 5. easy to do with correct information, not easy if ya follow docs advice.
This may be the case for you, but it is not the case for all T2s.
All the medical folks I've been in contact with my diabetes have been professional, caring (in many cases more than I am about myself) and knowledgeable. There is no way I could survive without medication regardless of how much exercise I took or how much care I took with my diet.
It's one thing to advise experienced diabetics that there are ways to deal with it but it's totally irresponsible to advise a neophyte to ignore their doctor's/DSN's advice and self treat.
no and you won't. they might be proffesional and caring, it does not mean they know what they are talking about. i have spoken to diabetics all over the world and to a person, agree that the advice is wrong. i tested my blood sugars to obssesive levels, every 30 mins in some cases and i know for a fact, the standard diet is crap. if anybody wants advice on how to manage diabetes properly give me a shout, if you want to manage it the nhs way and lose legs and sight, and kidneys go for it. and i come from a background of a father in law who died through diabetes and a mother who is blind and one leg through diabetes, believe me i studied it.

I never knew why Talksport ever gave him that job anyway confused: I hope they give his former slot to George Galloway (another Talksport Presenter), now that would really hurt Gaunty (as he likes to be known by).
As he dislikes with a passion & he made this known many times on his former shows,
'Gorgeous George Galloway'. The irony of that if it where to occur.... biggrin :twisted:
John gaunt was one of the best in the business of telling the jumped up jackbooted jobsworths that is so prevelant in today's society especially councils what utter twits (with an a) were. that's why he was hired. Having listened to him for years, and got his book and went to his live show, I think the fella was great, did ya notice the long pause when that idiot asked had gaunty ever been in care :D
oi, I'm trying to be your friend 777 :-)
i know I'm moaning but, i do love some of the new features :-)
same here with the private pics, had a personal one of jaq on a thumbnail, so did a random check of profiles, some had a thumbnail where private gallery pic is listed and some didn't, admit was only a few i saw with thumbnails, but i checked my profile as others see it and it could be seen.
just one about quickie messages, had one reappear tonight. was sent it yesterday, i deleted it yesterday, it went yesterday. wasn't there this morning and low and behold, was there tonight lol
friends feed.
If a person in your friends list gets a quickie message from a complete stranger, why do I get notified?
photos, i had one of my private photos on public display on my album pictures bit, deleted and another took it's place. deleting all my private pics till it's sorted, I had a private pic on public display, who decided that.
quickie message is now the verification by a different name, or could be used for it.
plus where's the manual.
watch what they do with the knife, you don't want to come out as another mrs somers :P
take care mate and maybe someone will offer a bj
jaq and kryps
personally the whole law on the issue is an ass.
if it was a good law it wouldn't throw up so many anomalies.
consider this. if a 19 year old student teacher has sex with 17 1/2 year old student, he gets branded and put on the sex offenders register according to the law as it stands, but a 60year old shop owner can legally have sex with their paper girl/boy on their 16th birthday.
you can legally have sex with a 16 year old girl but if you have a naked picture or even a suggestive one, you're a peadophile.
a 16 year old can legally have sex, but not watch sex at a cinema.
it's either legal to have sex at 16 or it isn't. it shouldn't be, ok your 16, you can have sex but we'll tell you who you can have sex with and what you can watch.
I personally think it's wrong if teachers have sex with their pupils and should be considered as serious professional misconduct and dealt with accordingly. but no way put on the sex offenders register. after all a 50 year old headmaster wouldn't be if he had sex with a 16 year old pupil at another school
