>> As a type 2 diabetic for 37 years, I'm now concerned more that an injection that I have been taking for a few years has become unavailable due to some people realising that it help with weight loss.
Me too. I was on Victoza, but now impossible to get hold of for the reasons you mention. My doctor told me that Hollywood stars and supermodels were buying as much Victoza as they could to stay slim.
It's weird though, my friend who lives in the Somerset can get an unlimited supply of Ozempic. Different area to me (Oxfordshire) and different NHS funding.
I'm now on Dapagliflozin, and although it's helped me lose nearly 3 stone since last June, there are some side effects to it. It has however reduced my daily insulin intake from 84 units to 38, and I also no longer need to take Gliclazide either.
My blood sugar level is around 6.8
