[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 1801323, member: 355878"] With the Metformin still in your system then your liver will not be free to release glucose in the same way a non medicated person would react, so you might need to avoid punishing your body quite so much until it can react more normally. On Metformin and a statin there were times when I was wandering around in a daze - I should not have persevered with them for so long - five weeks nearly wiped me out. Just eating low calorie would cause me to collapse, back in the days when I was being put on such things even though I had a slender waist, and muscles, which accounted for my density. I can't fast without swings in BG so eat at wide spaced times in the day, just twice, as I think that all the dieting to little effect in my younger days has made my metabolism a bit fragile when under pressure. My body is not so much a temple as a garden - not much to polish but a lot needing weeding.... [/QUOTE]
