Message: <blockquote data-quote="ronialive" data-source="post: 802421" data-attributes="member: 53168">I am also type 1 and take metformin.  it is used for insulin resistance which often is the cause of type 2 diabetes.  However people who are type one can also suffer from this , the difference is we have resistance to the insulin we are injecting.I am now on a pump and it reduces my insulin requirement by approx. 1/3 which obviously helps me to lose weight.  it is often used for type 1 diabetics to help weight control and is also used for a fertility drug.</blockquote>
