More eye examinations today. Left eye injection now tomorrow for the #diabetic #retinopathy with private laser on the cataracts next week followed by NHS laser 3 months later for the macular swelling. Progress at last. After next week I may have more than 50% of my vision back in my left eye!

CW: Diabetes Request to share experiences with semaglutide
My #endocrinologist still can't make up their mind whether I have #diabetes type 1 or type 2 because #COVID19 gave me diabetes. They switched me from #insulin to #metformin and it's working pretty well. They plan to add some #glp1 agonist at some point down the road. Not sure about that though. I know that both insulin and #Semaglutid are hormons that are native to the body. But I just feel (maybe irrational) apprehension towards drugs like #ozempic. Any fellow #diabetic got some experiences to share?

People without insurance can go to htpps://InsulinAffordability.com and download a Lilly Insulin Value Program savings card to get insulin for $35 per month." Eli Lilly is more progressive than the current US administration. #uninsured #diabetes #diabetic
