For Type 2 Diabetes "I am 47 years old, on an insulin pump, and have had pancreatitis 4 times in my life due to high triglycerides. I am currently taking Ozempic at the lowest dose because I am afraid of pancreatitis revisiting (worst pain ever). Last week, my doctor put me on the Synjardy, and my sugars this last week have been under 150 even after eating. I will say that I do watch my carb intake, keeping it under 30 per meal, and I lost 4.2 pounds this week. I don’t know if these results are normal, but currently, I am a believer. I cannot wait to see down the road if I have continued success. I have had frequent headaches, but I am hoping those pass. Hope this helps someone."
