[QUOTE="GoAliGo, post: 2368005, member: 530467"] He prescribed it because I used it as part of a drug trial last year, and had good results. But that was before my pancreas seemed to pack it in last November and my mealtime numbers have been creeping up since then. I have to be below 15 g carbs per meal if I want to stay under 10 mmol/l after 2 hours. Another over that and I hover around 12-14 for 3 plus hours. I was referred to and endo because my diabetes nurse and dietician do not believe I am type 2. I have to wait to get the tests until my appointment with the endocrinologist. I am normal weight (BMI - 21.5) normal blood pressure (100/70) and excellent cholesterol profile (and have pre-existing autoimmune diseases (hashimotos and vitiligo) and a family history of type 1. SO the tl;dr of all that is, my gp is ignorant and doing his best with what he knows. Thought Byetta might help, but it hasn't. Won't prescribe bolus insulin until i see the endo. Don't see the endo till March 16. [/QUOTE]
