[QUOTE="MancboyChris, post: 2216326, member: 518088"] Hey. I have no idea and neither do the nurses what's going on. I am just on the lantus at night time now 10 units. Been off meal insulin for over a week now and numbers in normalish ranges. I'd prefer the tablets as they are meant to help weight loss. The whole month of Jan I didn't lose any weight even though my eating dramatically changed. I think the meal insulin prevented me from losing weight. I have an appointment in April with a diabetic consultant. Maybe I'll find out what they're doing. When I left hospital I was taking insulin with meals. Few weeks later no insulin with meals, just lantus at night. Numbers stable. They provided me with glucose and ketone monitor and strips. Still on prescription. Maybe I'll find out why dark chocolate has no effect on my sugars and some other stuff. Sorry for waffling myself. I'm still up in the air and don't know where I'm going to land. Hope you're well :) [/QUOTE]
