You neef to demand a gad test and a c peptide test . It does no realy sound like type 2 unless you are eating only what you should not. I would br thinking lada or mody. And if it is the the glic is one of the worst things you could be taking and will distroy you pancreas very quickly by burning it out . Pls go to your drs.

Off to the doctor ASAP-This happened to me near enough and it did turn out I wasn't type 2 so further tests are urgently needed.

Best of luck
