I Was Diagnosed With 2 Type Diabetes At Age 36
I was diagnosed with 2 type diabetes at age 36 can I live a long full life if I take meds, workout, and diet.
Short answer is yes
At your age you are going to need to keep your A1C below 6.5% for at least a few decades and below 6.0% would be even better
So if you want to make it you are going to have to decide you are going to do whatever is required
If that means losing some weight and keeping it off forever, eating healthy, getting some exercise and taking meds if you need them - whatever you need to do
Do that and you will grow old with diabetes
You can lead a healthy long life. Just change eating habits. Reduce your carb in take. Dont touch potato and sugar. You can use Splenda , plant based sugar.
Sure @A DiabetesTeam Member, T2 can be put into remission, no medication required, just a lifestyle changes. Good luck🤗
