| Thanks Slipperyelm for the thoughtful comments and good wishes. I don't want to inject insulin, probably anymore than you.I will haveto return to a little Metformin and Glipizide, even if I can reach my 40 loss goal. However, when the new insulin isapproved I would take it in a heartbeat over a lot of Glipizide! I consider the new drug "life changing" in that some
people truly need to inject, but don't because of the emotional stress factor. I'm going to do everything to lose the
hideous network of special fat attached to my portal vein. That is probably an endcrine organ of sorts, not simple energy storage. If some surgical team wants to excise it with a tricky
proceedure, such has been tested recently in Turkey, I'll let them try on my case. My gut tells me it is the greatest culprit
in the diabetes puzzle! |
