[QUOTE="Wendy18480, post: 2074387, member: 264212"] My original numbers were 5.6 and my doctor prescribed me 2000mg a day of Glucophage straight away. Now I'm of the school of though, rightly or wrongly, with medication that starting low and building up is better than going straight for the full dosage. Anyway it would appear that I can't take more that 500mg per day, I get quite ill when taking more. My diabetic dietician (great woman, open to new ideas and anything that works) was very surprised that my GP put me on medication at all, she thought that he would recommend diet to try to control the levels. So in answer to your question personally I think it is possible to be categorised T2 & pumped full of medication when borderline. There are some very wise and wonderful people on this site who will give you a far better answer than I ever could. Good luck xx [/QUOTE]
