Hello, all. I've had type 2 diabetes since 2003, I use insulin & metformin. However, my GP had to stop the metformin last September, because of kidney problems. Since then, I've had continual problems trying to get my blood glucose down. It's averaging 9.4 readings, I've been on a steady weight loss diet and have lost 21lbs so far, but it hasn't lowered my sugar levels. I want to ask if there are any other tablets available to supplement the insulin. I know of Glicazide, but nothing else. I am not able to do physical exercise or walk too far because I have a severe & chronic balance problem , due to an inner ear condition. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thank you.
