Tablets (oral)
I’m on 3000mg of metformin a day. I’m also on dapagliflozin. My hba1c is at 65. When I was first diagnosed it was at 48. I’m a terrible eater and it’s only my fault it’s so high. I just need inspiration and to know if anyone else has similar struggles and can offer advice. I had a heart attack two years ago which I am sure is linked to the diabetes and yet I still can’t seem to get it under control! Feel like a massive failure.

What is your diet like? Are you eating lots of carb stuff?
 
Yes my diet has been awful. I know I need to change it round.
 
Many people are having success with low carb or keto eating
I eat low carb/ keto vegan which is a little trickier but it works for me.
Explore some of the low carb threads to see if it is a good fit for you.
