General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello
Since your age is very young just 17 years , you are having type 1 or insulin dependent diabetes mellitus or IDDM .
The only treatment of this type 1 is INSULIN and don't responds to oral anti diabetic drug at all as far as known to me .
However I have seen so many ads over here & there and so tall claims but till date there is no scientific proof that type 1 is responding to oral anti diabetic treatment .
As I am doing research on this subject from many years , so don't trust over these tall claims . Take INSULIN and this is right treatment .
Good luck.
