For me, the fact that a medical professional who is supposedly an expert in tbeir subject, actively advises someone to go on a powerful medication just so they can eat what they want, is just awful. There are issues like driving and having to report to the DVLA, having to test before doing so, the risk of hypos and the responsibility that goes with that..I would actually class it as irresponsible, if there isn't a real medical need for it. My daughter, 25, is on insulin 4 times per day too and I would give anything for her to not to be - but she hasnt a choice. I'm genuinely glad that you are happy to manage your diabetes this way, but as a T2 myself, who enjoys some very good food indeed, I would rather make the adjustments to my diet that are needed, rather than have to inject insulin unnecessarily.Just my opinion.</blockquote>
