[QUOTE="Art Of Flowers, post: 1637947, member: 375067"] Metformin does not reduce blood sugars much. If you are at 10.6 then metformin may help you get down to about 9.0. If you want to get down to non diabetic levels around 5.5 then consider a low carb diet. At diagnosis I had blood glucose of 13. After about five weeks of metformin and cutting out high sugar food this reduced to 9.8. Cutting out high carb foods helped me to reduce it much further. [/QUOTE]
