[QUOTE="HLW, post: 171627, member: 10252"] Why anyone would want to voluntarily take insulin is beyond me. Being on tablets was far easier. No hypos, no need to work out exactly how much I was going to eat, no need for injections, no weight gain, no need to carry around the insulin, no need to notify the DVLA. You would need to be just as careful with your diet kentishman, as insulin causes weight gain so you would have to eat carefully to avoid this. You would also need to avoid sugary foods and carbohydrates just as you do now, more carbs = more insulin = more insulin resistance. Shirl ask your doctor if your tablets need adjusting, I don't think you should be having hypos? [/QUOTE]
