[QUOTE="JoKalsbeek, post: 1854265, member: 401801"] I don't know anything about insulin and always being hunrgy, but I've had problems with the pills too. So much so I ended up trying low carb, high fat, and going diet only. It worked, (and my bloodsugars were significantly higher than yours.... If my doc hadn't been on holiday I'm pretty sure I would've been put on onsulin myself, but things were a mess at my GP's and the hospital then), but I wasn't on insulin at the time. If you chose to change your diet to get off insulin and any other meds, make sure you *have medical support*, a meter to check what your levels are, plenty of strips, jellybabies or dextro in case of emergency (hypo), and a very, very good understanding of what you're going to try. I didn't have mentionworthy help, I had to sort it out on my own while everyone was on holiday, but like I said, I wasn't taking insulin jabs. Learn what you can and decide what you want to do with this. All I know is that insulin in type 2's rarely does much for complications in the long term. (Not to scare you, but just... You know. Personal experience.) [/QUOTE]
