[QUOTE="DCUKMod, post: 1888123, member: 345386"] Hi there Tiker - I'm not T1, not do I take insulin, or any other diabetes medication. I was always passionately against medication, for any condition really, if I could possibly avoid it. Fast forward to earlier this year when my Doc offered to allow me to trial a small dose of medication to see if it had any impact on some symptoms I had been experiencing, but simply couldn't get a diagnosis for (2 Consultant Endos, a Consultant Rheumatologist plus a couple of GPs and over 30 blood tests). Once I started feeling a positive impact of this very tine tablet quality of life very quickly trumped my stubborn ego! We're still working on getting things right, and my symptoms haven't fully abated, but feeling better (in whatever form that is) makes a whole heap of difference how we view a situation. Looks you you're doing very well. (And very, very few private medical insurers will fund any diabetes treatment or post-diagnosis investigations related to diabetes, even at their elevated tiers of cover.) [/QUOTE]
