@ringi does metformin works in type 1 diabetics?
Personally, I don't think that weight gain esp. with insulin (I take glyclazide and metformin) is as important a factor as risking a hypo with less food. Perhaps exercise is a good thing. Take care.
@Erin even im not knowing the reason for my wt gain as told by my doctor as insulin is a hormone it is d reason for wt gain and the shorter acting insulins hav more wt gain thn the longer acting one..
@Sweet_you_ if you don't copy the name properly, the person does't get tagged in, and the intended tag appears black rather than red. Don't worry - it's only a learning curve. Compare@dcuk mod hii yea i informed my doctor abt weight gain with tight controls thn doctor adivsed me to take long acting insulins(degludec/xutophy) once a day.. But tht didn't workout with me.. Had severe hyperglycemia so again i shifted back to my normal routine i.e with 3novorapids and 1levemir. hope weight gain controls with vlc.
