[QUOTE="Goonergal, post: 2316437, member: 368709"] Well being so ill could explain higher blood sugar readings, and loss of appetite could explain weight loss but the rise of BG and drop in weight are quite steep. Metformin tends to suppress appetite and supports many to lose weight. It doesn’t have a strong direct impact on blood glucose - it helps increase insulin sensitivity and reduces the amount of glucose that the liver dumps into your system. Have you already spoken to the nurse or is that next Tuesday? It’d definitely be worth exploring options with her, but in your shoes, I’d be wanting a bit more investigation to understand what is going on. In the meantime I’d stick with the low carb and try and eat simple, nutritionally dense food. Let us know how you get on. [/QUOTE]
