[QUOTE="dewbod1975, post: 1990222, member: 500603"] Hi [USER=181361]@helensaramay[/USER] . I'm not sure to be perfectly honest. I think my GP has just made that assumption. I'm seeing a nurse on March 1st so maybe it will be confirmed then. I have really reduced my sugar intake over the last week and have seen a definite improvement in my eyesight since then (my long range vision dropped off a cliff) and have been on Metformin for 3 days now. BUT...I am conscious that this could see a real drop off in BS levels so I don't want to go too far the other way. I would have no really way of telling if my BS levels were too low. And I've had no specific dietary information from my GP (apart from reduce sugar!) so should I continue eating as I normally was alongside taking the Metformin or continue to reduce sugar / carbs as well?
