[QUOTE="manxangel, post: 27221, member: 10691"] OMG, you are so helpful! That is a fantastic post! think i will be printing it out. My GP has taken a back seat in all of this and i am under the care of two great Diabetologists at our hospital and two fantastic DSN. they are really very good (except the reluctance to give me my test results) but you can't have everything. I am really trying on the Metformin and to be honest even though i feel like **** it does appear to be working. I used to be between 6-7 on waking but the past two days i have been between 5-6 which is good. I do feel very very rough, i think it is taking it out of me, the SR metformin is the same pills that made me throw up last time but not throwing up just yet even though i really want to. ohhh thank you for the info about the islet test. it is going to take a month to come back as the tests are done in sheffield. I don't know if my results fit the LADA catogory but from my limited knowledge it seems one of the real possibilites as well as T2 and T1 (going off he idea of being T1 though i seem to be better fitted into the other ones i think) this is just me pure guessing here. i realyl hope i dont go high again, i'll trust in the knowledge of someone who knows more than me! the way i have to do it is currently i am on 19unit lantus and 1 metformin. in two weeks i have to take 2 metformin and 12 units of lantus, another two weeks 3 metformin and 6 units, then two weeks and 4 metformin and no Lantus. it is very gradual. I think that was my problem last time. my whole body was messed up because of my high levels and they said right take one a day (no change) then a couple of days later they said take two a day (no change) then a couple of days after that it was straight onto 4, that afternoon i got my script for my insulin as i just couldnt keep em down. but now i'm ok, i think it might work. but slowly does it. I'm going to get my results if it kills me. then i will get them on here and any advice and help would be great. Thank you so much! [/QUOTE]
