Hi I'm Nimrod from Mumbai in India.
I'm 29 and i was diagnosed with diabetes 2 at 28.
So I'm celebrating my 1st anniversary with D-2.
I'm height 6"2, weight 86kilos or 189.2pounds and BMI 24.3. I was never obese or overweight before I was diagnosed and neither am I now.
My numbers are still not good anywhere and my blood glucose count is still not in proper control.
The reason is that the doc told me to start metformin and told me to return back after a month. I never returned back now its 11 months.
I rarely have to time for R&D on controlling my blood glucose, i just check up maybe once or twice a month using the self check machine. I always see numbers between 150 to 250 on my blood glucose meter so I know im not in control with these metformin pills yet.
Oh well. I have no choice but to go nuts educating myself about diet and medications, before i run into some more health problems.
BTW I have a daily drinking habit i cant help either and also I'm a chain smoker.
Thanks for this forum, found it from a google.
Regards from India,
Nimrod
