I am sure someone will be along who knows something about the blood sugar lowering drugs you mentioned. I don’t take those meds, but I know there are members who do. I love sweet things, especially chocolate. I’m guessing you like the milk chocolate. My partner loves the dark chocolate, the 90% stuff. I actually eat berries instead, or if I’m being bad I’ll have a small square. Yes, this love of sweet things is definitely a thing. There are actually discussions here by members who love sweet things and are looking for alternatives. It’s a sad fact of life for us diabetics  that all the things we love, like chocolate shoot our blood sugars up.You are certainly not alone with the lack of support for Type 2 diabetics. You are kind of on your own with it, so site like this are full of people who likely know a lot more than your average GP or diabetic nurse. We cannot diagnose but we can certainly talk about our own experiences. I haven’t been able to help you, but there will be someone who will be able to answer your questions.Mel <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> Edited for clarity.</blockquote>
