Hi everyone my name is Gary i find this site very interesting reading 12mths ago i was diagnosed with suspected type 2 which was left untreated diet only for 6 mths on having a blood glucose tolerance test my result was 10 so the doctor asked me to go on medication for 6 weeks then to return for a blood and lipids test. I was wondering is this normal practice the medication im on is metformin twice daily and pravastatin to be taken at night i would be very grateful for any feedback on this as im kind of confused with this diabetes thing due to lack of knowledge or could it be denial i dont know many thanks gazz.
