this is the one i have been waiting for. from my own history i knew that an antibiotic...clarithromycin....made my insulin levels drop a lot in a week. then i find out some years later that an ingredient of this is in gliclazide. so i asked for this to be able to work to my advantage.
now i have finally received it. have been on it just over a couple of weeks. now on the 4 tablets a day i am noticing some changes.
the two meal s a day that i take these tablets, are allowing me to reduce my insulin.
all meals were 2 units of novorapid per 10g......now breakfast is 1.5units novo per 10g and dinner is 1 unit per 10g.
result i'd say. but its not easy. and each day presents its own usual problems. i am trying to increase exercise carefully too as historically this goes down the pan!....mainly because of my severe insulin resistence and so it all goes out of wack.
any other type 1's got some experiences on this?......as usual my dr and nurse say that i am an unusual case as the same rules don't seem to apply for me ??!!
quite exhausted, just want to have some diabetic control in my life..... :shock:
