Hi
I have high fasting blood glucose levels (first thing in the morning) about 15 and then throughout the day it seems to slowly come back down to the 7s. I have been told my HbA1c is "fine."
Doc wants to put me on insulin. It worries me because I understand once started there is no going back. The pancreas stops working completely.
I thought insulin is for type 1s. I have heard people speak of BGLs in there 20s which doesn't make mine sound so bad.
Is my fear of insulin rational?
Should I be more concerned about my BGLs.
