Hi all , ive not been on for a while been going quite smoothly since i was diagnosed in 2012 still not on meds and being controlled by diet and execise, however went to see nurse last week she advised me to try 500 mg metformin although she says my levels are good 5.6 but simply because it protects against the cardio vascuar deasese !!and she says it will also help with more weight loss , im not really confident in what she is advising, i asked her about feeling hungry all the time she said she had never heard of this i have just read on this site that its one of the top 3 symptoms of type 2 i really think i want to speak to someone who can answer my questions would this be possible if i asked thanks
