I have MODY. As @azure says, there are different types and they respond slightly differently to medication. But I don't understand the point about metformin at all -- I would have thought the only concern is what gets your BGs down. Gliclazide works very well with some MODY, but not all. Have you adjusted diet and exercise? Testing is only really much of an indication if done before and 2 hours after meals.Hi does anyone have Mody or Genetic Type 2 diabeties so struggling with my blood levels i know your not meant to test after food but i did an they were 23.5 checked again an hour later down to 18.3 im on highest dose of Gliclazide only thing that seemed to work was Metformin but my consultant said they dont treat my diabeties type with Merformin

Hi yes i have HNF1A
hi not been on insulin noHNF1A is usually very responsive to gliclazide. Were you on insulin before? I still don't understand why you wouldn't be encouraged to continue with metformin as well if you weren't having any ill-effects -- might be worth clarifying
Hi @Poks15 -- sorry you haven't been hearing from other MODY people -- we are an elite bunch of course! Are your BG numbers still high? Do you test 2 hours after meals? When do you take your gliclazide? Have you adjusted your diet?hi not been on insulin no
