[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 446726, member: 21149"] As others have said you do need to keep your carbs down to, say, a max of 150gm/day and see how it goes. If you are overweight then you would be insulin resistant and the metformin will help with that but not directly to reduce your blood sugar by much. If carb reduction doesn't help then further tablets would need to be added. If you are either normal weight and younger or both then it is always possible that the diagnosis might be T1.5. So, reduce carbs and do see the GP again if there is no real blood sugar reduction. Your HBa1C needs to be kept below around 7.5%. [/QUOTE]
