Posted on Wed, 4 May 2016
Question: Thank you. I am a newly diagnoised diabetic, December. I have lost 15.5 pounds and am taking metformin 500 2x day. I feel like i have been tossed into the deep end of the pool with no info, only what i have obtained myself. I checked my bs this morning, 136, i had one slice of low carb 35 calorie bread, egg beaters with spinach and mushrooms and turkey bacon. I just feel like the more I try the farther back I go. any suggestions

Brief Answer:
Thats great. Please continue lifestyle changes with medications

Detailed Answer:
Dear friend, Greetings from HCM.

I have read your query and understand your concern.

It's really great that you adopted lifestyle changes as required. Now u need to continue and take medications in time which is important too. Concentrate on your diet , take more of green leafy vegetables, fruits, millets and oats. Practice yoga and meditation.

Kindly get back to me if you have further query.
