[QUOTE="chalup, post: 1330399, member: 306126"] You might want to ask for a c-peptide test which will tell you how much insulin you are producing. If it is very low you will have to consider insulin. If it is very high then you are eating way to many carbs and a change in diet will be necessary for control. Throwing insulin at someone who already has very high insulin levels is a recipe for disaster and yet doctors do it all the time. The more information you have about what is going on in your body, the better equipped you are to make good decisions with your doctor. [/QUOTE]
