Type ?????

If my oral meds - 1000mg glucophage + 100mg sitiglptim work, does that mean i cant be type 2 ?

If you are only on oral medications (and not insulin) then it is very likely that you have been diagnosed with type 2.

That doesn't mean that it can't be *type 1*, however (misdiagnosis, "double" diabetes, etc). If you are in any doubt you should speak to your doctor.

I would have thought if oral meds work you are most likely type 2 - if you're type 1 and honeymooning they'll stop working after aout 6 months - a year at the most. HTH
