[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 848602, member: 21149"] What madness and we pay for it in our taxes. Metformin only ever has a small effect on blood sugar so there is no strong advantge in testing for it's effects BUT you do need to test to see what foods affect you and if you are a mis-diagnosed LADA as a T2, like I was, then testing let's you know something isn't right without waiting a year for the next HBa1C. Some of these doctors haven't a clue. [/QUOTE]
