[QUOTE="Guzzler, post: 1669523, member: 408573"] While you wait for your appointment it would help you and your GP test test before and after meals. Take a reading before your first bite of food then two hours after your first bite. Note down the readings (ideally there should be no more than 2mmol difference). Show these readings at your appt. Lowering the amount of carbs in your diet should have an almost immediate effect on your blood glucose levels. Metformin is not prescribed to lower blood glucose and will have little direct effect, it is very useful to combat what is called liver dump. More of that later. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
