I was diagnosed T2 in April 2015,with Hba1c of 59. I lost 2 stone, increased my exercise considerably and went on LCHF diet and now keep my BS under 6 before meals and under 7 after 2 hrs. I have developed retinopathy despite good bloods and my GP wants to put me on Metformin. He says I am just unlucky for this to happen when my blood is under reasonable control. Does anyone else who is pre-diabetic take Metformin because of complications? Breakfast 2 eggs scrambled with butter, lunch mixed salad, prawns or chicken and olive oil, dinner grilled fish or chicken, 4 veg, full fat yoghurt and 6 raspberries. Is there anything else I can do?
