[QUOTE="Hansi, post: 1711567, member: 358217"] I had a very severe attack of acute pancreatitis in 2015 followed by a number of small incidents since but the problem is that I now have contracted Type 2 diabetes and my last HBA1C test yesterday was 91! I have been trying to control this by diet, but my GP put me on metformin 500mg twice daily. I am very careful what I eat but it seems the the pancreatitis has damaged my pancreas, and whatever I seem to do, I can't really control the diabetes very well. I don't drink, don't smoke and try to eat healthy. Don't know what else I can do [IMG]https://www.pancreatitis-forum.org.uk/images/smilies/icon_confused.gif[/IMG] I am male aged 74. Should I be buying a blood glucose monitor and checking it myself.My GP didn't mention this at all. [/QUOTE]
