[QUOTE="QPR4Me, post: 1606962, member: 132584"] I was on a lovely mix of Chloropropamide and Metformin. Utterly useless. Chloropropamide isn't good for your heart and Metformin did strange things to my head, making me very short tempered and unreasonable. I went back to the Diabetes clinic and told them to get me off Metformin before I finally lost the plot and became at risk of attacking someone! So I started my life on Insulin 28 years ago (now on Novorapid and Lantus), have barely looked back since! In all honesty, while I know Metformin works for people, my own experience of the stuff was awful and I could never recommend the stuff to anyone! For the record: Diagnosed T2 at end of 1986 after failing a medical. Was nowhere near being overweight. Have history of T1 and T2 in my family. Been on Insulin since 1989 and now, am finally loving life, after dumping Sitagliptin tablets for another injection (Luraglitide) which actually works and has helped reduce my total Insulin intake from 91 units daily to 57.
