diabetes, type 2
"I started this 1 year ago. The first day I couldn't leave the bathroom, after that it was okay, but it gives me gas and cramps really bad, and it still does. If I eat, it goes away. No gain or loss in weight on this drug. I'm not fat. I do crave carbohydrates on it though. My A1C usually is in the six's most of the time. I have it checked every three months. I was fighting this disease on my own, but for me I gave up after three years because I was very limited to what I could eat. I was diagnosed 4 years ago with a starting A1C of 13. Got it down to 8 with no medicines, but that is when I gave up because the life style is just not conducive to normal life. "
