This may be a terminology thing but as a T2 I will always carry that diagnosis. However, mine is in remission because I manage it through medication/diet.

My doctor and I have talked about trying to see if I can drop the medications and still stay in remission but I'll still be a T2 patient.

Also, not all T2s can manage just through a ketogenic diet.

Thanks for your perspective, and congrats on the lookout to not even take meds anymore. Yea didn't want to imply that the ketogenic diet would work for everybody with T2. And I can see how you'd say you'll always be T2 as you will want to keep watching your diet even if you didn't take medication anymore.
