[QUOTE="nareshthandu, post: 2259537, member: 522888"] Hello, I am type-2 diabetic and diagnosed with it few years back. I am 37 years and weighing around 68. I have recently started doing intermittent fasting(16:8) for last three weeks and stopped taking metformin. I have also reduced my carbohydrates intake and mostly eating vegetables, nuts and cheese. I am also making sure to do at least 30 minutes of walking/jogging everyday. I can see my sugar levels are coming down, for example my today’s fasting blood sugar was 5.1. But for last couple of days, I am struggling with frequent urination. Relatively I am drinking lot of water, that is at least one glass per hour. Do I need to worry about frequent urination as I have stopped taking metformin. I have also checked if there are any ketones in urine but there aren’t any. Inputs would be helpful. Thanks [/QUOTE]
