I was diagnosed with Type 2 at the end of June. I am on a treatment plan that includes daily doses of Sitagliptin/Metformin, a strict diet and exercise. My sugar was coming down steadily toward acceptable levels until about 3 weeks ago, when it stopped, and then reversed. It is now at again alarmingly high levels.
My GP wants me to start taking insulin, and we will be having a discussion about that in a couple of days. I am not keen on the idea, but don't see any alternative.
Does anyone have any experience with this sort of situation? I sense that my GP is not all that knowledgeable, but I can't see an endocrinologist for the first time until end November. I am becoming quite stressed about all this.
