Hi
I was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes 3 1/2 years ago. I have been prescribed Metformin and Saxagliptin.
(I was also on Canagliflozin but I had numerous infections once I started it and have since stopped)
I was due to have bariatric surgery next month but my operation has been postponed because my Hb1Ac score was 104
I am devastated.
My Diabetes clinic is going to start me on Insulin injections.
Before my appointment later today, I just wanted to ask the community for some advice around how quickly the Insulin takes effect and any side effects that I need to know about.
It has been proposed that I will have two types of Onsulin - one 3 times a day and the other as required...
... any support gratefully received.
