True, but on the other hand, we often are not given the whole story when we're diagnosed. I sure wasn't. It took me a long time to find Dr. Bernstein's book and then various lchf websites. Even then, I was often discouraged by stories of diabetics getting off insulin & getting their bg down to normal within a month or 2. I kept wondering what was wrong with me.
