[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 1001917, member: 196898"] Although you state you are doing LCHF, you say in the body text that you eat to meter, which gives the impression that you are a bit more relaxed about things than some. i share the same approach myself. I think the original question was if Metformin combined with LCHF could give rise to a hypo. from what i have seen so far it seems that it is rare but not unheard of, but would have increasing risk the stricter the LC part of the diet. My advice to anyone attempting an LC diet of any type is to test properly and take a hypo awareness course just in case. i went 8 years without a hypo at all, but am getting some now I am LC and still taking hypoglycaemics. I am learning to reduce my meds dosage to compensate. [/QUOTE]
