[QUOTE="stephenlopez, post: 1773807, member: 471031"] Hi [USER=473281]@Walter Wolf[/USER] I can understand how are you feeling. I was diagnosed nearly 2 months ago and the condition and I was devastated after my diagnosis. I weighed 85KGs which wasn't that bad according to my height, 6'1", even I used to workout hard so that I can build big. However, my diet was very high in carbs and my doctor said that the reason behind my diagnosis are my genetics (inherited from my father). At first I was very confused about what to eat and what not to and certainly my GP was useless when it came to help me. My initial reading was 62. After nearly 2 months now, my reading is 49 and I'll work harder to lower my readings. I know metformin is annoying in beginning but the side-effects will ear of in 1 or 2 weeks. For me the side-effects were nausea and stomach ache and they were gone in about 11 days. I know it'll be quite difficult for you, but I believe that you will get better. Just keep up with metformin for the sake of your health! Meanwhile, to help you with diabetes I refer you to read this as this information helped me a lot in initial stage: [URL]https://zovon.com/health-conditions/diabetes/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
