[QUOTE="buffyiscool, post: 1689695, member: 402065"] I appear to be the opposite of you. I asked and asked and asked why they wouldn't consider putting me on insulin. I'd had quite high blood sugars, mainly in high teens low twenties, since diagnosis in March last year, spent numerous stays in hospital either due to severe infections, MRSA and sepsis included, or in the case of three of those stays for surgery. All the while the doctors and consultants would show concern over my BM levels but wouldn't do anything pro-active. It took the stay in hospital with sepsis for one of the consultants to say "enough is enough, your tablets alone aren't doing anywhere near enough work to bring BM levels down we're going to instigate the switch to insulin". Currently on Gliclazide and Humulin I, both twice daily along with other meds for related/non-related problems. BMs eventually showing signs of improvement. Hope everything works out ok for you. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
