As I said in my original post, only the meds have been dropped. My diet hasn't changed. If anything I may have increased my carb intake slightly.

So this happened... My endocrinologist and my doctor were both prescribing me Victoza, Jardiance, Lantis, Metformin and 300 units Insulin per injection, 1200 units per day. My sugars kept going higher and higher. Every morning I would test at 300+ and by evening I could at times test at 700+...
