I'm not sure where you got that idea. Many times newly diagnosed diabetics are given meds/insulin to get them back into control, especially if their blood glucose levels are soaring, but once that control is reached, everything is re-evaluated. If the person can attain and maintain a normal BMI, is willing to exercise most days of the week, and has the psychological and financial wherewithal to eat a really healthy low carb diet, many (maybe most) times that person can be maintained with those lifestyle changes and no meds for quite a while. They'd still be considered diabetic and still would need twice-a-year blood work and doc's visits to make sure they're maintaining the status quo, but many on this list are doing well with no meds.
>For the last 12 months or so my blood reports are of a non-diabetic profile, including the Glycoslated Hemoglobin.<
This is the A1c test we talk about all the time here, sometimes called the HbA1c.
>All the figures making up the Lipid profiles are below/above of what it should be be<
So you're doing well, at least for now. Good for you!
>and no BP.<
Well, I hope you have a BP... I'm assuming you meant BP is WNL.
