I believe that the recent introduction and success of Ozempic, for those who have been through a lot of problems finding a reduction in blood sugar levels, before insulin, which should always be a last resort.
Because of circumstances, my better half couldn't get good control, hba1c levels too high, it was getting to the point where insulin would have been advised.
But this drug has changed this, the recent hba1c was close to non diabetic levels.
With small additional changes in her diet, her health has improved as well.
The doctor in the surgery, has thirty patients who have been given Ozempic, 90% have had significant impact on their hba1c levels.
There is other choices than going on insulin, hopefully more doctors are getting the message, that resorting to insulin is the final, final choice.
