Hello. I've been a T1D for more than 14 years now, using only Insulin (Insulatard and Actrapid). My HbA1c is 8%. Yesterday, my doctor changed my Insulin dose (lowered it quite a bit) and added Glucophage (Metformine). I thought this was for Type 2 only, so I don't know if any of you had been using something similar and is it normal ?!! He told me that it might help me lose weight as well (currently at 91 Kg for 1.79m despite intense physical activity - walking and running - I can't seem to be able to lose even 2 or 3 Kg).
Any thoughts ? Thank you all.
