Have worked very hard to loose weight and eat a balanced diet to bring down my blood sugar levels over the last 2 years - had my Metformin dose halved 4 months ago and after a review yesterday the Doctor is happy for me to stop the Metformin completely for 3 months and then have repeat HBA1c test to see if I still need meds or whether I can manage on diet alone to control my levels. I'm on a number of other meds including BP meds - not sure if I need to return my Medical Exemption Certificate at this stage or carry on using it and wait until my repeat bloods in 3 months and a definite decision on whether they will be stopped permanently - what have others done in this situation? TIA
