My doctor and diabetic nurse have been amazing and are giving me great support but think I may be a type 1 not 2 diabetic.  I am currently on Metformin 1 tablet a day for 1 week moving to 2 next week.  I am also on Vitamin D and iron tablets. Both my mother and farther had and have diabetes.  My mum died 3 1/2 years ago due to her having heart problem brought on by uncontrolled diabetes she was 73.  I found the website by chance but now feel I have somewhere to go to gain help for people who live with diabetes.<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /><img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></p></blockquote><p></p>
