Currently the only treatment available for Type 1 DM is Insulin Injections. A lot of research is going on to develop oral insulins and there is some work going on in the field of stem cell therapy. As of now only option is Insulin. You should carry on with it and try to maintain good control of blood sugar by adjusting doses of Insulin.
