[QUOTE="beckchar11, post: 29965, member: 12194"] I'm new to this site and need some advice please. I was diagnosed four years ago with type 2. My levels have been up and down but having gone from an off the meter reading to 7's and 8's I havn't done too badly. My last overall reading at the clinic was 9 and I've been told to go on insulin. I don't feel unwell, and friends have readings of over 25 and remain on oral treatment. I really don't want to go on insulin if I don't need to, the thought of it is distressing me, not just because of the injections but because it takes so long to get control and if my sister is anything to go by, it makes you feel even worse. I have been told I am unusual as I also have an underactive thyroid but because I am not overweight cannot be prescribed any more oral than I am already on. !!?? Any advice please. [/QUOTE]
