I am Type 2 diabetic and I am on metformin. The last few weeks, my sugar levels have gone very high. My fasting levels are now the same as my levels AFTER eating and after a meal tonight, my levels showed 15.65. I am 61, does these mean I will have to go onto insulin or a higher dosage of metformin?

In any event there are many choices of medication available in the diabetic tool chest without the need to involve injections, not the least of which (as Val says) is Gliclazide.
If the thought of possibly having to inject yourself is concerning you, then I really wouldn't worry about it too much.
On the other hand, once all the alternative options have been exhausted, then try to think in terms of all the very young people who have to take injections for T1 Diabetes for all of their lives, and maybe that would help to put things into perspective for you?
