If either of you have a dietician at your gp’s practice they would be a good person to discuss your diet with regard to what foods would be suitable for your blood sugars. GP’s love proactive patients who are making an effort to stay healthy so they will be only too happy to refer you to one if they don’t have one in their practice.
I found the dietician very good getting me started in changing my diet when I when I was first diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Very good at showing me where I could cut back with some foods and increase in others that I thought would be a no no. Might be worth a try
