Mine are 8.4 to 12.9 which is worrying me. I have a cold so maybe that is why it has risen. I am still on only 500g of Metformin which will be doubled I believe next week. Hopefully, it lowers soon. Please can anybody tell me how they felt when their meds were upped. Did you feel physically better?
I don't think that Metformin really lowers levels all that much tbh. I've read it has most effect on the fasting level and I did see some drop in that when doubling my Metformin but not a huge one and it's hard to know if it was that or losing 4st that did it. Personally I've found that ditching bread, pasta, rice and potatoes( bar the odd few chips (and I mean few) followed by vigorous peddling) has had most effect. What are you currently eating?
