I have learned that to limit my carbs and sugars by the daily meals example if I have carbs for breakfast I don’t for lunch if lunch than not dinner. And I take my metformin religiously 500mg twice a day and I went from them wanting to start insulin to almost not needing any meds
Im on januvia 25 mg see if that will work for you a friend told me this one because i had a reaction to metformin
Tresiba is good it's a slow acting insulin covers you for the 24 hours. Then go to a fast acting before a meal if higher carbs. Avoid carbs and get a good low carb snack. Beef jerky/ shrimp rings/ ham n cheese roll ups are my go to.
Are you experiencing any side effects?

I am using tresiba.
My Doctor won't even talk about prescribing anything other than insulin now.
Yes, I experienced horrible side effects with it.
Have you tried Trulicity?
