[QUOTE="Melbel, post: 1353391, member: 369873"] Thanks everyone for the replies. I will find out what my levels were, I think I was too scared to face it at first, now I'm getting my head round it all and want to know the ins & outs. My GP is a little blasé, she said not to worry about it and look at it as a good thing (as in changing my lifestyle and losing weight) There was talk of not even being sure to put me on medication to begin with but then it was decided they would after the two hour fasting test. I have been dieting since November (mainly low carb base dieting) and exercising regularly (swam 70 lengths today) and I'm losing weight.. In fact I feel the best I have in a while. It was just the 1x metformin thing that has started playing on my mind as it seems the norm to up them. I think I'd better make an appointment with the GP again or see if they've replaced the diabetic nurse yet. This forum is great! I'm so glad I joined. [/QUOTE]
