7.6 this morning
Still high for me
Trying to get away with just 1 metformin a day (instead of 4)
Guess my body is not ready for that

Hi Jemz have u dropped from 4 metformin straight to 1 or have u done it gradually ?

Morning all, 13.1 today (15.8 during the night & felt rough). Sneaks back in to join you all, actually felt frightened in the night as felt so spaced out. Anyway, enough about me, I hope you are all doing well.

Yeah you got me.
I am ridiculous. From 4 to 1.
I don't believe I need 4. I've only been on them for about 6 weeks, and then only 2 of them at 4 a day. Slow release. And still having a bit of a laxative effect on me.

No science or methodology here. Just wilfulness

Hi
I had put the evening walk after meals,it seems to reduce the BG reading in the mornings.

I think I'd have to agree with you. My usual routine is walking the dog after dinner. Too much socialising this week has got in the way.
Thanks for the reminder

Hi @Jemz try dropping your Metfornin gradually, say 3 a day for a week then 2.
