[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 1947480, member: 21149"] Hi and welcome. From what you say particularly the high BS and weight loss I suspect that you may be a LADA (late onset T1). The Glimepiride may help al least for a while but you may be in the honeymoon period during which your insulin output may continue to decrease. If so insulin may be needed but don't panic as it's not a problem and does the job. Many of us have been down the same road. Keep the carbs down. BTW I'm impressed that your nurse had access to a portable HBa1C machine as most surgeries don't have them (why?). The private hospital I used a 3 years ago used one to do my HBa1C in 5 minutes.
