    I was diagnosed with type 2 at a reading of 28 and 32 the next day, I take glucofart as its populary known for obvious reasons, and my average HbA1C is between 6 to 7. I hoped it had gone away too, but my doc told me that wasn't the case, I try my best to steer clear of sugary stuff, but the worst culprit for me is anything with white flour in it.

    www.diabetes.co.uk is a good place to look for answers, they have good forums, tons of info etc

    take care
