Have any of you gone off of insulin and still managed blood sugars? Am I in denial by thinking this is possible? I currently take about 35 units a day (pumper) on a lowish carb diet.
I welcome any advice you may have (I can take it...I think). Thanks! |
That is a low dose. I think you could ... especially if you do have a component of insulin resistance. Probably not permanently off, but a few weeks' to months' holiday?
