I’ve recently been diagnosed with diabetes type 2. My Dr wrote to our local consultant at Hospital as, due to my low weight, she thinks I’m Type 1. Currently on an alternative med from Metformin as it disagreed with me. Have lost a further 5lb recently. Feel so low. Can’t afford to lose weight. List appetite. Will things settle down when blood sugars steady. How long does the meds take to kick in and is feeling low normal?

Hi OP, I'm type 2 and know nothing about type 1. Have you checked out the Diabetes UK site, they have a forum too.
