[QUOTE="peacetrain, post: 584448, member: 96747"] I think that is my problem ... Not sensing what sort of level I might be. I'm always dizzy!! I also got it into my head that the stomach churning was my liver dumping glucose. I've heard lots of people talk about what the liver does and, because I had been eating at odd times and going for lengthy periods between meals, I wondered if it was my liver. The churning began a couple of days after I stopped the last dose of metformin. It then disappeared for over 2 weeks then began again last week. I'm sure it's stress and/ or anxiety. First time round I was worrying what would happen when I stopped the med. this time I'm very busy at work and not getting any younger. I can't burn the midnight oil like I used to. I think my BG has been ok even though I haven't tested myself. I'm not worrying about that at the moment. By obsessive I mean I'm testing before every meal and 1 he and 2 hr after. On waking and before bed. Probably no more than others but I think it's probably not necessary when I'm eating same things. I just want to check because I'm no longer on med. my other "obsession" is walking. I say this because that's how my daughter is describing me. In fact she thinks I'm obsessed with diabetes. Ha ... I told her it's the diabetes that's obsessed with me! It won't leave me alone!! ;-) Thanks for the pep talk :-) Sent from the [url=http://www.diabetes.co.uk/app/?utm_source=sig&utm_medium=txt&utm_campaign=appsig]Diabetes Forum App[/url] [/QUOTE]
