Lows while on metformin and glp1s suck
I'm type 1 before anyone complains about a type 2 posting here (I've gotten too many comments online and irl when I mention I'm taking metformin and Wegovy. t1 since 09, insulin resistant since 2024).
I started Wegovy a bit ago, after stopping Mounjaro, and my god sometimes lows just will not come up with these meds. last night I kept going low (also needed to fix my ratios) but it literally took an entire bag of gushers to make me break 100mg/dL. After having hostess cupcakes (with some insulin) and an apple (without insulin).
the gushers were without insulin and I still barely broke 100 an hour later.
these meds do work, but this is your reminder to BE CAREFUL.
