[QUOTE="buffyiscool, post: 1610330, member: 402065"] Hi. I was in a similar situation regarding high blood sugars. I am type 2, diagnosed in March, and nearly always had quite high blood sugar results, average was around 19-21. During my 2nd stay in hospital in the space of 3 weeks, for serious infections, one of the doctors basically said enough and put me on insulin. I am currently on 160mg Gliclazide twice a day and 14 units of insulin in the morning and have seen a notable difference in my blood sugar levels. I was also started on Metformin about 2 months after starting the Gliclazide but it had to be stopped as I had a reaction to it. It maybe worth asking your GP/Diabetic Nurse about the possibility of starting insulin injections along side your other medication. Good luck. I hope things get sorted for you. Colin. [/QUOTE]
