The information on this site states that it is not suitable for Type1. I don't know if that applies to Type1.5

I'll bump your post up to see if anyone else can help.

Thankyou. I've now been told I have type 2 rather than 1.5. And just started this med. Amazed. Bloods were 5.2 on waking. And haven't been above 7. Also I've lost 3 lbs already. No side effects. Its a very new drug so early days

Your signature says Type 1.5.

Yes I was initially told 2 years ago I was type 1.5. But 6 months ago they said no it is type 2

Then change your signature as it is confusing.
