[QUOTE="BenMMellor, post: 1482537, member: 51947"] Hi all, I've been type3c since I had an acute gallstone attack on 1st October 2011. This caused major inflamation of my pancreas and multiple organ shut down. Luckily I recovered but suffered necrosis of the pancreas and lost about 80% of it. Still have the head left apparently - the rest dissolved itself into a major black soupy gloop which was contianed in a massive pseudocyst and thankfully drained off over several weeks in hospital. Diet wise - I try to behave but having given up any alcohol and cut down 'sweets' (not easy when you have a sweet tooth) and try to limit my carbs. This caused me to get quite depressed due to the major shock to my dietary habits. Meds wise - currently still making some insulin myself thankfuly but also on a combination of Invokana, Gliclazide and Metformin SR and trying to be better with my diet. [/QUOTE]
