Since having a kidney transplant in Sept 11, I have put on 5 stone. The anti rejections are partly to blame, as is the high dose of insulin needed also due to the drugs. After asking for help since last March my renal specialist asked the diabetes consultant if I could have Victoza, he said no as it wasn't licenced for type 1's.So he asked another consultant who said yes. I was really pleased until I just checked with a diabetes support group. The lady there said to look it up on the Electronic Medicines Compendium and was shocked to find all the things it could do to me. It also says it shouldn't be given to type 1's. I am angry that this other consultant would prescribe such a drug, and also angry that I am still 5 stone heavier and still gaining weight. I am bordering on depression, anyone got any words of wisdom please?
