Thank you

Yeah when I stopped. Nurse was happy with everything at my check up just before. Then moved house and my wife had a baby. Recently no i wasn't trying. Hadn't really accepted to myself I'd gained a lot of weight

Hi, I'm 36, I work night's and am active during the day so sleep poorly/infrequently. The tests in July 17 told me to take metformin for 3 months then retest. July was 40 then October was 33 so nurse told me to stop metformin and come back if any issues. No problems until started feeling...
