Why were you pulled about as treating high blood sugars involves a drip in arm and monitoring?

Had blood tests for different things and keep being woke up to test sugars , my drip came out few times had to b put back in so sore arms and bruised!
 
Pleased to hear that you are finally home, sorry that you have had such a rough time while you were in there. Take it easy.
 
So how did they fix your treatment? Have they changed medication in any way to get you sorted?
 
Staying on same insulin for now added a tablet in with it to see if it makes any difference , i was on it before but for some reason they stopped it so gona try it again have an appointment next month to review it all

Sitagliptin

I thought you had decided you were type1 so if that's the case you should not be on this medication nor if you have kidney problems which you also stated you had. So I'm becoming very confused by your posts.
 
Sitagliptin? It's contraindicated when renal problems are present, and neither use nor ornament in Type 1s.
 
The question really is what it's doing to your BG scores, if your doctors are confident it won't harm you.
 
Theres a case for neglicence there then hun if there putting you on meds that counteract for the greater good you cant just accept that and take then it may make you worse and you dont want to have anymore hospital appointments any time soon x
