[QUOTE="Lazybones, post: 772924, member: 85347"] Firstly welcome to the forum. It sound like with your help in the background, your husband is heading in the right direction by firstly reducing his weight, which will help him in reducing his blood/Glucose average levels. It's good news that he has become accustomed to the metformin, as this is generally the first line of medication that we Type 2 diabetics are prescribed to help reduce our average blood/glucose levels. As the principle meal provider I would suggest that you spend some time looking through this site for diet recommendations and suggestion for Type 2 diabetes. Many on here advocate the LCHF (Low Carbohydrate High Fat Diet) diet and have had spectacular results by using it. As for your husbands cold hand it's worth keeping an eye on this, as it's more common for the feet to experience coldness than in the hands and fingers, and might be the first sign of changes occurring within his circulation. If you have any question however simple it may at first seem, then please ask, as there is usually someone here on this site that has experienced it. [/QUOTE]
