[QUOTE="Ixarix, post: 1578134, member: 439065"] This sounds like me too. I experienced rapid weight lose recently. I lost about 30 pounds over about eight months. About two or three weeks ago I'd been to visit my doctor. During this visit he told me I was diabetic and initially we were going to treat it as type 2. But the following day I was feeling really lousy so I went to the hospital and they wounded up keeping me there for a week. My sugars were pretty high, and things were really out of whack. So I was put on an insulin iv, and saline iv to help flush out my system. I'm not sure what tests I was given, but too my good fortune the endocrinologist was working in the critical care unit as the doctor on staff while I was in there. She was able to examine me there, I'll be seeing at the end of the month. Hopefully she'll clarify things. Now I'm currently classed a type one. I'm now on insulin (lentus at night) metforman at meals. I feel much better now and I think I may be gaining some weight back. [/QUOTE]
