Diet
or pills
or injection
Just ask your GP.He’s also reporting to DVLA,which will ask him for it,after you reported to DVLA
but see first what your GP says
The only way to diagnose the type of diabetes is by having a GTT,(Glucose Tolerance Test) carried out by a hospital at your doctors request.
I was declared Type 2 diabetic 3 years ago after being borderline for 30 years.
It was not bad enough to require any treatment other than keeping an eye on my weight which I’ve always done.
18 months ago,I decided that 14 and a half stone was too much weight to be carrying around,so I modified my diet ever so little and I lost one and a half stones in 6 weeks!
As long as I stay under 13 stone I’m more than happy.Although once you are declared diabetic it’s with you for life,I still have to have my retinas photographed every year and my feet checked for blood circulation.
However when I have my 6 monthly blood test,because of the weight I’ve lost,my blood/glucose is below diabetic level!

im no expert but over the last few years every time i go to doctors and tell them my symptoms the say are you diabetic,i have to have tests and it comes back no,even though pee tests show sugar level very high.
so id go for best treatment is diet,i used to be a sod for burgers,bacon rolls etc,etc, if i now need to stop i go into services and get yougurt,salad,orange ,apple from m+s,waitrose[try to use supermarket if near as obviously cheaper,i was never fat, but i must admit i feel better,maybe more a mindset than reality really.
so id say diet[healthy is the best treatment],also if possible i have a strole,quick walk
