[QUOTE="AKThree, post: 2390297, member: 541380"] Thanks for the replies. So we finally spoke to a diabetic specialist who seemed to have actually listened to us. They suggested to start her on a small insulin that she takes once a day to normalise her sugars (this is alongside metformin and Glicazide). This is purely to get her sugars in check for now. I did ask for a GAD / C Peptide test that EllieM suggested and they said yep we will do that but the GAD test (is there a difference between the two?) and then review what to do. Does that sound like a fair plan for her? For now she has to try diet control 'til she gets trained on her insulin which is in a few days time. Sorry for the elementary questions here, I am learning more and trying to help at the same time :) [/QUOTE]
