[QUOTE="morradichi, post: 1196357, member: 174730"] Ok, well I went for my annual check at the hospital yesterday. I thought it was coming in September but no, 4th July. For some reason they couldn't do the hba1c bloods so were relying on the results from last March. Those March levels were down to 49 (down from the initial reading of 107 when diagnosed in March 2015). That reading was taken before I even started the diet so I have to get the test done myself next Friday. I would be very surprised if this coming test shows me still above 42 given the success I've had since starting the diet. I'll keep you posted. I have to say the nurse got very stroppy when I told her I was off the meds and didn't actually believe me... until I showed her my results for the last 7 weeks. I wanted to make sure there was no room for doubt so I made sure I brought both my monitor and my written log in as proof. Once she'd seen those she was 'oh that's pretty good actually'. I think she'd been having a bad day yesterday because she seemed to be arguing everything I was saying. But the proof was in the (low sugar) pudding ;-) So as of now, I'm 7 weeks off the metformin, still keeping my weight down and still within the normal blood glucose range. Next week's hba1c should be interesting. [/QUOTE]
