[QUOTE="pollensa, post: 1521234"] Well said!. I threw my metformin out of the window, the damage it can cause by simply shuffling the sugar on place to another in the body not getting it out of the body, seems crazy medical recommendations, Iagree, one is responsible for taking care of ones own body, listen, respect, but one does not have to take medications and Doctors can be wrong. I was given Metformin why Doc felt levels a bit high on testing Random I was way below old200mg/dl i.e.11mol/l I think UK, if one was not over the cut off threshold, and well below, why would one consider metformin, when a more pragmatic recommendation of change lifestyle, exercise diet should have been the first order of the day!!! that made me realize my body my choice as you say. Now, no meds, normal levels, revered A1C in 4 months 23% .lost 18 kilos, most bewildering of all when I showed my Doc results he did not really listen, said Oh, good excuse to get new dress, keep taking your metformin, its working well, hello Doc,I have not taken any and are out of the window..... Doctors have to start and view individuals situations one side, one medication does not fit all sizes......and this is the problem, another problem, with them all...they are barking down the wrong avenue...... The Medical profession should start and target focus on the CAUSE insulin resistance for Diabetes 2 and not the symptom which is High Sugars, currently, it seems this is overlooked.... Well said...
