Hi,
I was diagnosed on 18 August and put on 1000mg metformin a day.
Hba1c - 75
total cholesterol - 5.8
weight - 175lb
had my 3 months bloods back today after following a low carb diet (approx. 100g a day)
Hba1c - 49
total cholesterol - 5.2
weight - 161lb
Also have much more energy and don't feel hungry all the time.
Question: Should I see the doctor about reducing my metformin or carry on until I get my HBa1c under 42?
