[QUOTE="therarediabetic, post: 2392237, member: 542043"] Hey everybody, MODY HNF4 as well! I'm currently 35 years old. I lived as a Type 2 for ten years and then about a year ago the Glucophage no longer kept the blood sugar in check. Additional investigations plus a genetic test then confirmed I had MODY. I've switched to about seven units of Tresiba since. My question to you is Alice / Sophia is around "burning out" the pancreas with Gliclazide. Did that every come up with the doctor for you? As I understand it Gliclazide is only a temporary solution, it will be a bridge to insulin therapy. By starting insulin therapy earlier it should preserve more beta cells for the future. FWIW I'm also on a Freestyle Libre 2. It's totally changed my understanding of how my blood sugar responds. What's your HbA1C? Highly recommend it! [/QUOTE]
