Diabetes, Type 2
"I&#039;m in my fifth week taking injections. I&#039;ve been on 2000mg metformin daily for 4 yrs but my A1C has been creeping up over the last year (7.3 ) and my fasting blood sugars (morning) had averaged around 160 and almost never registering below 150 and too often above 170. Over the last 4 weeks my fasting sugars have steadily dropped. Last week they averaged 116 and this week they are averaging 107. I&#039;ve experienced sporadic mild nausea and a reduced appetite (not as hungry as often and I fill up much faster). I&#039;m not a fan of the injections but they&#039;re tolerable . I&#039;ve not followed my weight (definitely not gaining) and we won&#039;t check my A1C for a couple more weeks."
