Right now I'm in the situation of taking in more carbs to offset the fatigue. I am more ready than ever to go on insulin and drop this drug.

Mike, I would get call your MD and get off it, ask for something else, your choice. It did not affect me that way, in fact I had no obvious side effects, but I am just as glad to be rid of it.
I think there is more to it than lower blood sugar -- I actually feel BETTER, lower, and more energetic.
