Hi Rie 26
For the last 18 years I had been on medications for T2 and it got out of controll and in January 2016 a consultant put me on Lantus insulin10 units plus 6 tablets,metformin also Gliclazide. The result, I collapsed most evenings I fear hypothermia happend during the nights and after blood tests read bellow 4 mmol/L , I had to come down for something to eat before I have another black out again.Finally,My husband suggested stopping these tablets and reduce the insulin down to 6 units.which is better.
It was pure luck that I was referred to a new consultant who runs his own clinic in his way. He took the interest in my case and suggested the blood test for MODY. Here I am a MODY patient.
I also started LCHF diet and carry on with my exercises walking and swimming. It seems to be working for me.
Unfortunately, my first appointment to see my GP is not untill 9 th January next year. I suppose it's not life and death.
Take care and thank you for the reply.
