Has anyone come off insulin and on to metaformin?
The reason I ask is that my Doctor is talking of doing this to me. I have been on insulin since diagnosis as the hospital needed to reduce my blood sugars quickly so I could have a leg saving operation.
After reading all the stories on this forum about metaformin I was wondering if anyone had heard of, or knew of this happening, I need to find a legitimate excuse to stay on insulin. If its never happened then I can use that.
