Hi
Further to my earlier post I was tested GAD positive a few weeks ago. I've had a letter saying this means I am type 1.
I'm on 1 metformin tablet a day and had a average BG of 6 after food and about 5.5 two hours after food. I assume I'm type 1.5 and lada but haven't had this confirmed.
I've followed low carb and bg is good. However over the last 5 days my BG has lowered before food to early 4 and even a couple of 3.7 readings and I'm starting to feel a little bit tired.i was told my readings may go up but now they are going down I'm worried I'm full type 1 and the metformin should be dropped and I should phone the specialist particularly as I drive a lot.
Any advise most welcome thank you. Aged 51 no family history have lost 2 stone in 2 months and hbaic was only 7
