Hi John and welcome. TuD is a great place where you can get support and ask questions, and you have received some good advice and support already. I am going to be bold and say that, in my opinion (I am not a medical doctor), your situation sounds like classic adult-onset Type 1 diabetes. @swisschocolate provided you with a link to a blog I wrote on my Top Ten Tips for the newly diagnosed person with adult-onset Type 1 diabetes. I will also be bold and say, again my opinion, you should get to your doctor now and get on insulin ASAP. Extreme weight loss and extreme fatigue are classic symptoms of uncontrolled Type 1 diabetes, and insulin is the treatment. Getting on insulin should slow/stop the weight loss, reverse the fatigue (it does take time), and help with the depression (high BGs can cause depression). Best of luck to you!
