I found that 2 x 500mg Met in the morning and the same at night all but destroyed my working life during the morning and my family life in the evening.
I then decided to spread the load over 12 hrs, meaning that I got my work life back....but not the evenings.
My post prandials ( with low carbing) were dropping into the mid 6's and 7's. But my morning bloods were 8' and 9's.
Last week I decided to forgo the latter 2 dosages, relying on the pre noon meds.
To date, no upset stomachs( I'm using extended release met) with my morning levels are now 6's and 7's... not perfect, I know... though my night time levels - according to my libre- are around 5.
Could the evening stomach events throw my system out, meaning that I wasn't getting any benefit?
Has my pancreas started to recover, as my liver dumping is reduced?
Could my nigh on 1/2 stone weight loss over the past 3 weeks ( no real exercise as such) made such a difference.
Or...has my occasional use of Amitryptiline ( forgive the potential mis spelling) chilled me out, so that I'm not as stressed?
(I'm struggling a little with aching ankles and fizzing feet)
Comments and/or advice is always welcome.
