Last Friday I started 500mg of Metformin per day. My diet over the last 4 weeks has completely changed for the better. I got a Contour testing machine and started testing last night for the first time. Sugars were high enough, but hopefully my diet, exercise and metformin will help bring them down. This morning when I woke, my sugar levels were 9.4. From my blood tests a month ago they were 14.9 and that was fasting too. So an improvement even if it's still high?
It's very daunting. I'm doing all of this on my own. I'm still waiting to be referred and I'm in Ireland, things don't move very fast here.
