Hi All,
I recently had a review 3 month with the Doctors and he is very happy with my results, he wanted to keep me on 4 x metaformin still where I have 2 at lunch and 2 at the evening meal, I said I wanted to come off them eventually and control it via diet and exercise, so have dropped to 2 with the evening meal however last couple of days my BS has risen by about 2 compared to my previous levels will this be down to the reduced dosage also having stomach problems again similar to when you first start metaformin - are these all related do you think. Thinking about going back up to the 4 x tablets again and leaving it for a while and try again I have only been diagnosed for 4 months so maybe pushing it a bit to come off the meds so quick
