[QUOTE="Guzzler, post: 1615501, member: 408573"] Mine is a similar story. Told on diagnosis that at my next visit bg lowering drugs would be prescribed and that in the opinion of the dn I should be put on insulin there and then. My A1c was 98. After finding this site a few days later I learned how to tackle stuff. My next visit one month later showed a drop in A1c to 73 and three months after that a further drop to 43. So I can absolutely say with certain conviction that the members on this site are responsible for my improved health and prospects for the future. Without this site I would now be trying to cope with the drugs and/or insulin regime that I would prefer to put off for as long as I possibly can. This is not because having to take drugs/insulin is some kind of failure to control, it is because at the time of diagnosis with T2 I was already on 17 tablets per day. I couldn't at that time have coped with a lot more. [/QUOTE]
