[QUOTE="justbabu, post: 246189, member: 39658"] Hello, This is my first post. I have been perusing this forum since I was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes at the beginning of December 2011. It was all a little daunting and overwhelming, however, the Diabetic specialist nurse has been wonderful. I've seen her 3 times since then and she has been in touch at regular intervals during this time. My very first HbA1c reading in December was 12.6, then a month later it was 10.4 and yesterday it was 7.9. I had been placed on a series of medications from the start: Metformin + Insulin, Ramipril and Simvastatin. I've been very fortunate that I've not had any real problems with any of the medications nor with the daily routine of testing and injecting and increasing the insulin dosage. Yesterday I have also been prescribed Victoza. I'm hoping that I don't have many of the common side effects that seem to be associated with Victoza. So far, this forum has been very educational and informative. Thank you. Babu. [/QUOTE]
