[QUOTE="LADA23, post: 2274040, member: 525918"] Hiya I was diagnosed as a LADA/MODY around 1.5yeats ago now. I am only 23 now and was 21 when I found out. I was put on metformin at the start which worked well for around seven months but then sugars kept on creeping up and then was put on sitagliptin which I am currently on. However, what with lockdown my diet has been terrible. Been putting off reading my sugars and was shocked when I tested yesterday to see a reading of 24! Was scared I was in Ketoacidosis and don’t have testing strips but it came down to 12 in the morning (fasting) and I don’t have any of the symptoms. Have vowed to start a healthy eating lifestyle as this has really shocked me but I don’t know if I should continue on tablets or request a little bit of insulin? Should I give gliclazide a try as well? Would appreciate any help from anyone who is in my position! [/QUOTE]
