@jim18 Thank-you Jim! When I do see a new edocrinologist, I will encourage them to put me on a new & trusted sulfonylurea drugs and wean me off of the Gliclazide. I need an experienced diabetes doctor who understands the options out there for me. That Gliclazide is simply too potent a medication for me. In fact, I can often cheat on my sugar intake by having a regular soda or a sweet desert and end up with close to normal blood sugar readings in the long run. I watch my blood sugar levels quite closely.
