Ally are you sure that you are prescribed 3000mg.saw my gp. he has put the metformin up from 1500ms to 3000mgs aday
to see gp and blood test on the 30th december
I thought this as well Pavlos. My prescribing book says 2550. Also
Perhaps there are exceptions
Well I know I used to take 2 x 500mg - 3 times a day that equates to 3000mgs - so ally must be on the same.I thought this as well Pavlos. My prescribing book says 2550. Also

Yes you are right I remember my grandad used to talk about meds for animals on the farmI think they used to be able to prescribe higher amounts up to what Ally has been put on. I don't know, but wonder if it is dose/ weight related? A larger person may well need higher amounts to achieve same end. I know cows do.
I'm glad that it didn't sound like I was comparing Ally to a cow!! I just know a lot of meds were weight dose related so maybe he reckons a higher dose more useful till Ally loses some weight. Hopefully the higher dose will take edge off appetite too so that some weight loss is precipitated as I know she is struggling a bit with that on top of the fluctuating BS levels.Yes you are right I remember my grandad used to talk about meds for animals on the farm
Doctors do sometimes prescribe higher amounts I know
Hopefully Ally will be recording much better levels
