Hello, I had been on actos as well as other numerous medicine and my blood sugars were reading


 60 in the morning. I was on 30 mgs and I was feeling terrible with no desire to eat. The doctor took me off of actos and my sugars went soaring up again but I was feeling much better. I went to the jos.center and they put me back on actos at 15 mgs and it does not help. I went back to 30mgs and started taking it in the morning instead of the evening. Now in the morning I have about 110-120 but by evening its back to 250. I am maxed out on my other medicines so they tell me the  next step is injectables { what ever that means} I have heard actos can cause other problems and it makes me feel a little apprehensive. If I go to insulin does that mean I have to stay on it forever?  thanks John
