Help and advice really needed please. In feb I was diagnosed with type 2 and polycystic ovaries based on the results of an extended gtt. The endocrinologist put me on 2000mg of metformin a day and I've never felt better. I'm loosing weight and all my symptoms have been greatly reduced. Well I've just got off the phone to my gp and she said that my average level has been 5.3 over the past two months and I don't have the blood sugars of a diabetic. I know she was implying that maybe I shouldn't be on metformin and I had to explain to her why the endo made that decision. I'm so upset, its taken nearly three years for a professional to take me seriously and get this diagnosis and now I'm scared she will take me off it and I'm back to square one. Is it normal to get an average of 5.3 on metformin with a highly controlled diet, I've only been on it since march
