My hba1c was much higher than yours and managed to bring it down to 41 mmol after 3 months. Also, I just met a colleague of mine at work last night who just diagnosed with T2 with her hba1c 100mmol. We both have Metformin, I started taking it Dec 2022 and my colleague started 2 weeks ago, we both haven't experienced any issues. If you do experienced any issues your GP will change the medication so don't worry too much.I only saw my GP on the day he confirmed I have T2 and met the diabetic nurse 3 times so far since diagnosed 18 months ago. The nurse referred me to local diabetes clinic but all I had was a 30 mins group video call. I got most of the information online, then I picked out foods and exercises from what I came across that suit me.</blockquote>
