[QUOTE="ClaireH88, post: 2514483, member: 193504"] Hi Everyone I would really appreciate some advice! So it turns out I was misdiagnosed as T2 8 years ago and I am actually T1. Trying not to dwell on the late diagnosis side of things and just want to move forward! I have been on insulin previously during pregnancy as Metformin never agreed with me. I was on Humalog / Humulin I however this caused me horrendous weight gain. I have been taking Canagliflozin which has helped me shed some of the pounds, but now they are trying to get me to go back on Humalog/Humulin. My faith is pretty shaken with the NHS at the moment as I am being passed from pillar to post trying to get some sort of plan in place. I am definitely not an expert when it comes to this, and a complete novice when it comes to insulin. The GP asked me which insulin I wanted to be on?! Any advice would be appreciated, particularly with different types of insulin and ones that won’t cause severe weight gain! [/QUOTE]
