    Going off insulin

    I was put on insulin a few months ago. I ballooned. My own fault I know but I was powerless against it for reasons I won't bore you with.

    need to rant, sorry

    Hi Andy, this is quite common. People, even those we love, want us to remain the same. We crave the familiar. She's just being human.

    Diabetic chocolate

    Re: Diabetic chocolate Always good if you're bunged up and don't mind a little crippling pain. I've moved mine to the medicine cabinet. Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

    Forxiga - anyone else on it?

    Re: Forxiga - anyone else on it? Sadly the chest pains which may or may not be related have meant I've been advised to come off Forxiga. But I can state that it does work very effectively and I would recommend it if you are offered 8-) Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

    Forxiga - anyone else on it?

    Re: Forxiga - anyone else on it? Quick update. My readings are definitely down. All below 7. And I'd love to say I've been good, but I'd be lying. The chest pains are a worry but they'll either pass or kill me. :roll: Sent from the Diabetes Forum App
