He was taking it briefly after being in the hospital in '13 with pancreatitis. He had a large gallstone lodge in the bile duct and he became septic. The insulin
had him roller-coastering really bad so they took him off of it.
I guess he needs to go see his doc for supervision with this. I hope he will understand not to continue him with the glipizide since he is now eating sf.
Still, is it true that he has to process out the sugar that was already in his system as well as any new glucose he gets in a meal? I am starting to apply what I've read about glycemic load of foods, even vlc ones. I wonder if I should be thinking of having him aim for the lowest glycemic loads of his options.
