[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 2284220, member: 41816"] Hi and welcome! not sure from your post which of your symptoms are new, and which date from the beginning of the year. Assuming you are going to be officially diagnosed as T2 (and assumptions are never set in stone), then changing your way of eating will have a much bigger effect on your blood glucose than Metformin does. And with less gut upset, if that is what is causing your tummy problems. lowering carb intake (because it is carbs that drive blood glucose upwards) will make a huge difference. So reduce the bread, rice, pasta, potato, fruit, fruit juice, sugar in any form, and replace those foods with a bit more protein and a lot more veg, so long as it isn’t carby root veg. There is lots of reading you can do to bring yourself up to speed with how T2 works and what to do to get it under control. I recommend [URL="http://www.bloodsugar101.com"]www.bloodsugar101.com[/URL] and [URL="http://Www.dietdoctor.com"]Www.dietdoctor.com[/URL] for starters. [/QUOTE]
