Am i the only diabetic that really struggles to gain weight? I used to have really bad control of my diabetes so have always been really skinny but lately i have massively improved but still struggle to put on any weight

Massively. Last year I gained control again of my diabetes after years of skipping injections and having readings of HI constantly. However I suffered massively with treatment induced neuropathy- restless legs, insomnia, no appetite, lost 2 stone, anxiety, peripheral neuropathy. However I recovered eventually after 6 months or so and began to put on the weight lost and now I have slipped back into rubbish control again- not as bad as before but my hba1c is currently 13%. I am in a cycle of trying to gain control but then I gain 7lbs over night (literally). I know this is all water but it still is difficult to process. However I am really want to gain back control but my DSN has told me to lower my blood sugars very slowly (aim for the mid to low teens atm) so the neuropathy doesn’t come back suddenly.
