Hello I'm New member here I hope to help
Me I have diabetic I take metformin 500mg per day 2 time without Medical consultation
I did not do analytics hbac1 please tell me what I'm doing now I don't know if I have type 1 or 2
 
It is not really possible to tell your type without medical consultation. Even then there can be some errors. There are tell tale signs of both conditions but these are by no means conclusive. If I read your post correctly and I hope that I'm wrong you are taking medication without medical supervision? Please do not do this it might be dangerous for you. A doctor will also provide you with additional medical support and advice. Welcome to the Forum by the way
 
Thank you for quick reply yes I take medication without medical supervision
 
I discovered the disease In the thirtieth year of age After an electric shock at home I lost a lot of weight I do not have high blood pressure Go to the water cycle between six to eight hours
 
I always do regular analyzes Mostly more than 3g /l but I didn't test HBac1

Do you mean you test with a meter with test strips? I don't think they measure in grams per liter. If it uses mmol/liter you should regularly be higher than about 8 to have diabetes. Did you get your metformin from a doctor?
 
Your blood glucose will vary according to whether it is fasting or within two to three hours of a meal. Whatever time of day it is, 3 grams per litre is too high. You really ought to try to see a doctor to discuss your diagnosis and medication.
(3g/l = 300mg/dl = 16.7 mmol/l)
France uses g/l but I'm sure that there are other places

Yes I mean 300mg/dC In my unit we use gram
 
Hi @hichamgsm - you really need to see a doctor. Your comments in another thread about losing 25kg are concerning. Do you also suffer thirst, a desperate need to go to the toilet all the time and tiredness?
