[QUOTE="ickihun, post: 1216514, member: 196960"] Hi Malcolm. Im on mixed insulin and have just had my metformin reintroduced as it stopped working as of sitagliptin and Gliclizide. Ive added weight on insulin even on a low carb diet but I have severe insulin resistance not pancreatitis. I too have underactive thyroid. Insulin floating around via injections even on low carb. Low carb more effective if insulin is kept low too. I was producing insulin for protein too. High protein just has high as carbs for me. Vegtables and sparse protein has been adviced. Some veg are not compatable with thyroid problems. I'm just experimenting to see any difference at mo. Metformin helps my female hormones at a pcos sufferer. I'll be reluctant to give it up. Your insulin replacing gliclizide should only add weight if heavy on carbs and heavy protein. You should be a lot better off. Have you got any insulin resistance? [/QUOTE]
