[QUOTE="Art Of Flowers, post: 1464035, member: 375067"] A HbA1C of 72 is quite high for someone three years after diagnosis. With these levels you may get further diabetic complications such as neuropathy. Metformin doesn't reduce blood glucose much. The only effective way to get down to normal blood glucose levels is to reduce carbohydrates in your diet. Intermittent fasting also helps. I suggest you get a blood glucose meter and test regularly to see which foods raise your blood sugars. The goal is to be in the range 4-7 before eating and no more than 8.5 two hours after eating.
