Any other Type I's taking Metformin?

There are many type 1 diabetics who use Metformin. Since Metformin results in using insulin, it can cause weight loss too. I have been type 1 for 64 years, and have used Avandia for 11 years. Avandia is another med that helps reduce insulin resistance, like Metformin. If you have had good results using Metformin, I don't see anything wrong in continuing with it. Maybe your previous doctor will allow you to continue. Good luck!
