[QUOTE="Grazer, post: 1981155, member: 31362"] Not sure what your question is - are you asking why your BGs are the same on or off metformin? If so, the fact is that metformin doesn't do a great deal for BGs. It has been suggested that on maximum dose metformin, the maximum affect on peak readings would be to reduce them by 1 to 2 mmols. So with a range 7-14 which you mention, you wouldn't be able to spot much difference. [I]However,[/I] Metformin has been proven positively to be a great help in preventing cardio vascular episodes, so with your heart attack, I would think you need to get back on it quick, unless there's another medical reason why you shouldn't.
