I am diabetic and I eat carbs. Not alot, and they are natural ie:fruit, veggies, whole grains(I eat bread), occassional potato or pasta(dreamfields is awesome). I avoid sweets and sugar drinks like the plague but on occassion I will have a serving of ice cream(1/2 cup). Even as a diabetic you can still have a small treat every once in awhile.
The American diabetes association has alot of info on their site and it may help you. It sounds like your doctor isnt very informed about diabetic diets because if he was he wouldnt tell you to ban ALL carbs from your diet, just the bad ones.
Your dietician should be able to make a meal plan with you that will work for your needs! I hope you feel better soon!
Good luck!
