      Hello, I have type 2 diabetes, being overweight, and take a lot of meds on the regular. My blood sugar eventually went from being in the high 200s at max to almost hitting 600! So I finally decided to go on insulin. This morning, I woke up with 470 as my number. I am worried and didn’t see any change. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

        @khalead Hello, my recommendation for you would be to see a doctor. Increasing the dose of insulin won’t improve your condition. It could be due to the lack of downstream receptors in your body, no matter how much insulin you take. Insufficient receptors make signal transduction ineffective and you cannot change that status by simply increasing the dosage. Please talk to your doctor as soon as possible. Thanks!
