[QUOTE="musiclover58, post: 457737, member: 91836"] I am in the process of having to take insulin as metformin and glicazide not lowering bs enough I thought I was doing ok but blood test done Xmas Eve came back at 85 but 3 mths ago it was 99 just before each blood test I had just finished a course of antibiotics and steroids for a chest infection for asthma problems and these drugs always raise bs I am scared about taking insulin I have an appointment next week in which my husband has to come along as well so she can talk to me about it I thought my bs reading was good at 85 at least it's coming down I didn't overdo things at Christmas and even lost 3 lbs in weight can I refuse insulin ? And carry on with the pills or will I benefit from taking insulin ? I have to admit I get some hypos with the glicazide and am quite scared that I will be more prone to hypo's once I'm on insulin .
