Lisa- from what I am able to understand, you were once on some diabetic medication and were able to come off. I found this in an earlier thread.
I quit taking it (with my doctor's blessing) because I didn't need it any longer to keep my blood sugars in line and it didn't seem to be doing anything to aid my weight loss, so I didn't see the sense in continuing to pay for it and take it.
You've probably related this story many times over, but I would be very interested in hearing how you were able to do this. If this has been answered somewhere, I'd appreciate you directing me to the thread.
Of course, I'd love to hear from anyone who was able to discontinue the use of medications. In specific, I'd like to know how long you were on it, how much were you taking, what determined that you could now come off, what numbers are you getting being off and if coming off was done suddenly or a gradual lesseining of meds.
