    Disadvantages & advantages of Metformin

    Nobody has ever talked to me about it. Nobody mentioned b12 or kidney function. But quite a few family members take it. I looked up the pros and cons and after initially deciding not to take it I changed my mind. I think that its not a big earner for the pharma companies, so there is no...

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    Hope its all a bit better now. Comfort eating is very hard to tackle cos it is an ingrained reaction to dealing with pain. I still haven't managed to work it out, so no advice. But I understand how it goes.

    Using low carb diet and sugar is still high, how do I get it lower?
