So I was diagnosed with type 1 last Thursday so a weekago. My sugar has been in the 300 stable and I am on metformin. So I found out Bc I wasn't feeling well very tired dieing of thirst not hungry looseing weight like crazy so I went to the doctors and got blood work the next day b4 I for my results I went to the hospital Bc I couldn't bearly get out of bed. So for now I'm not on insulin which is great but idk how this works lol if anyone has any input that would be awesome.

Welcome to the Forum!

Since you are currently not using insulin, read through the first three threads in the Type 2 Section, when you get a chance, if you have not already done so. These threads will most-likely help you a lot. Self education is one of the keys to successful management of your diabetes, along with a healthy / sensible diet and exercise. Basically, diabetes requires a life-style change for the better. Good luck with your control and management.

If you start insulin, you should read; Think Like a Pancreas: A Practical Guide to Managing Diabetes with Insulin
