[QUOTE="urbanracer, post: 1135109, member: 140811"] Hi there [USER=292760]@Trinidad2016[/USER] , welcome to the forums, looks like you've got your work cut out for you. Some people cannot cope with Metformin, some people benefit from the Slow Release type (sometimes also known as extended release) so get him (or maybe you have to) ask the doc about Metformin SR. NEXT, make a note of how many grams of carbohydrates he's eating every day and then look for ways of cutting down. Rice, pasta, bread and potato are generally poor choices for us because all carbohydrates turn into glucose in the body. If you can, get a blood glucose tester and start testing at home so that he knows what the food is doing to his body. [/QUOTE]
