Hello EnchildrRu,
I understand your struggle with diabetes.I have the same problem and I am trying to get my blood sugar down by diet alone,I too was diagnosed several years ago.They had me on insulin for six months it was a nightmare,my appetite when sky high,I could not stop eating and had cravings that were intense for doughnuts,chocolate,all kinds of junk food and ice creme and other high calorie stuff.I gained three stones which is 42 pounds.I had to stop the insulin due to weight gain and my blood sugars got worse not better.So my advice is refuse insulin however bad your sugars get as it makes the problem worse not better.If upping your medication helps go for that option.
