Update on combination pills for people with diabetes

Recently, several more combination diabetes pills have become available, and I think I ought to update my previous essay on "Combination pills for type 2 diabetes" to include the new combo pills.

A diabetic coma

My BGs started going up in January or thereabouts, and no matter how much insulin I took, they just kept going up. One day I took 150 units to try to bring my BG down and it didn't do much.

New at pumping

I'm living with T-2 . . . 16 years now . . . have gone through all the oral meds . . . got myself off before burning out all my beta cells . . . did MDI for 2 years and am now pumping for 2 months. I'm using 37% less insulin now that I'm on the pump.  Is this similar to what other pumpers have experienced?
