I was diagnosed in November of 2000. I was only 39 years old and I felt like I had been kicked in the stomach. But it was also an odd sense of relief. I finally had a reason for why I was feeling like doo-doo for so long. Blood sugars are WAY better since getting back on Atkins. 14 day average is now around 130. I know my doctor is going to be pleased with my progress as well as my diabetic educator.
