[QUOTE="timbro, post: 1931960, member: 373790"] I had issues with Metformin and sudden diarrhoea at the most inconvenient times, awful. Life much better on insulin, don't be afraid of it. I lead a much freer life now as I can adjust my dosage to what I eat. (Not always correctly but better). I went through a very very low carb period before o went onto insulin and hardly reduced my hba1c however I never got above high teens on finger prick tests. We're all different, follow your nurse's advice and don't worry about insulin when the time comes, it can be life changing. [/QUOTE]
