Ben have you only been taking insulin since 9th Dec '17?
I added 2st on starting insulin. If they find you are producing your own then they may stop your insulin and you may lose some of that weight you may have added.
Hopefully that will please you and your diabetic team?
I'm now on insulin til bariatric surgery. Maybe after too.
My insulin resistance has been evident for many decades prediagnosis so IR has had free reign.
I am intolerant to most diabetes medication. Metformin and I have a love hate relationship but insulin stops me being rotted away.
I unfortunately need insulin to combat my severe IR high bgs. Exercise reduces my IR but I cannot exercise nor walk much without huge pain. Even with Tramadol.
If I was lucky enough to discover I no longer needed insulin I would be ecstatic.
Myself and many type1s would swop places with you in an instance!
Has your consultant left you on lantus and novarapid?
When do you see them next?
