Hi @Elaine T2 if you like you could brain dump as much information as you can such as your HbA1c, fasting blood glucose, what you are eating / exercising (if doing this) and many will provide some suggestions which may help.

Metformin does little in the way of lowering bg but helps to protect organs and is a mild appetite supressant.
Fasting bg levels may be being affected by liver dump (dawn phenomena).

Some people make it hard work, but it doesn't have to be. I found the food diary hard work, working out portion sizes, using scales and measuring spoons, but that passes once your eyes tell you how much of what is on your plate. That was 3 years ago for me. Since then I have found it easy.

Why do you think there is a risk of serious trouble down the line?
