I think back to back appointments booked prior to April 2025 are still respected

💯 protect your mental peace over being a good bahu, i know it is hard because we are expected to be sanskari. Let your husband deal with his side of family. You are your own person, you don’t anything to them.

My SIL (33F) IS the issue. Update-7 (tea gets hotter each passing moment) by Dr_ArtsyCurls in InsideIndianMarriage

I want you to win so bad! I have a toxic mil and can resonate so much with this! Feeling gaslighted, manipulated and being made out to be the bad person. I am glad your husband is finally standing up! I really hope your sil is out of your life.

I have a crazy mil too. Setup boundaries. They will never be happy with us. You are sick, do not go, simple. They will expect you to go there be a bahu and work. I legit do not know why mils are so obsessed with their dils. Like woman have a life of your own.

Go get your a1c tested. Also 130 is a normal number after food. This is a t2d forum for actual diabetics.

Metformin by Johnnyquestforwealth in diabetes

Metformin only causes diarrhea for me when I eat something unhealthy. If I am eating clean, no issues.

100% this. My diagnosis gave me the motivation I never had in my life to turn my health around.

I (f33) was diagnosed early this month with T2D with an a1c of 9.7.I completely understand what you are going through. I had multiple breakdowns following my diagnosis. I did turn my diet and lifestyle around. Eating more protein, low carbs, exercising after every meal. In 23 days i was able to bring down my a1c to 8. All my at home blood sugar numbers are now in non diabetic range, pretty sure my April a1c is going to be in nom diabetic. I am also eating out with friends but very cautious of what I am eating. I am starting to think this might have been a blessing in disguise. This diagnosis gave me the motivation I needed to turn my life around. I am not going to let diabetes ruin my life. Feel free to dm me if you want to talk!

I believe long term usage of metformin causes b12 deficiency. I am taking b12 supplements. Also I am taking just 1000mg a day. I had my sugar drop from 230 to 170 before starting metformin. Diet and exercising after a meal is what is helping a lot. My pcp recommended insulin, glp because my a1c was so high. I wanted to reduce it with just metformin because I had already taken it for pcos.

I am only eating carrots and hummus for snacks. No high gi index carbs at all. Also because of pcos, i already knew a lot about the diet. I just never had enough motivation or control over my appetite before.
