[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 2107689, member: 21149"] Hi. Don't rely too much on fasting blood tests as the overnight liver dump can influence them. Test 2 hours after a meal to see how you are doing. Yes, the GAD test when negative isn't conclusive (mine was) so ask for the c-peptide test if your BS keeps going up. Metformin is very safe drug but won't have much effect. If you are T1 sadly you will need meds beyond that. [/QUOTE]
