Hi
I am on 2000mg of metformin a day. I haven't always been good at taking this and so at my last check up my hbA1c was 9.6
The DN said that wwith my reading this high I would have to look at going on insulin.
After reading these forums I keep seeing people who are on other medications as well as metformin and so I wondered if there were any I could discuss with my nurse to try and prevent the insulin for a bit longer?
I am also trying to lose weight and lower my BG by eating low carb foods etc.
