I am on low carb diet. I think it is doctor who can't accept fact that I am diabetic because my AIC is "prediabetic range". I am on duoxiltine which is dehydrating and don't like to take. Thanks for your response. I have been on anti-depressants and they don't do much. Diabetes and depression are linked. We need more research done on diabetes and autoimmune diseases. Can't wait for Big Pharma to do it.

@lewin, I love the experience and encouragement shared by @cehunt57 and @linda1970.

For some people with prediabetes, a low-carb diet can quickly bring elevated A1C levels back to a healthier range. See this study published in JAMA https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle/2797714

Do you also live with an autoimmune condition as well as diabetes? Or are you referring to latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA)? https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/type-1-diabetes/expert-answers/lada-diabetes/faq-20057880
