[QUOTE="borofergie, post: 244715, member: 33342"] Honestly I tried everything. My GP wasn't budging. I even considered spiking my HbA1c by carbing up in the weeks before the test (as spaglemon suggested). Funny how the GP who always told me "that I need to eat more carbs" is the same one that is not limiting my carb intake by pulling me off the metformin. As you have all noted, there are lots of good reasons to stay on, but I think Doctors are rather fundamentally opposed to prescribing medication where non is (strictly) necessary. I suppose you could say that we are all victims of our own success... Stephen [/QUOTE]
