[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 2316667, member: 21149"] As some others have said T1 is always possible even though you may have a bit of excess weight. Metformin never has that much effect on blood sugar so the GPs are being a bit optimistic with Metformin but they do rely on it too much. As you have reduced the carbs I would contact the surgery again and tell them your meter readings and that you aren't feeling well; ask for the T1 tests. They could add something like Gliclazide for a while which may well help but they need to ensure your diagnosis is correct. [/QUOTE]
