    Type 1 development - can someone explain?

    So avoiding the medicine that stimulates the pancreas to produce more insulin may not prevent Type 1? I always thought Type 1 was because that medicine burns out the pancreas. So its very possible that I may end up on Type 1 at anytime? WOW I had better not reproduce so I can spare the offspring...

    Type 2 Can I take 2 x Metformin without the ok from my Doctor?

    my sugar average reading after I eat is around 200 for post meal I guess this is too high. The only way I get it around 150 post meal is if I do lots of exercise which IMO I prefer because I do have to rely on bread as my staple food.
