[QUOTE="ianf0ster, post: 2213181, member: 506169"] Congratulations you have done really well. Based purely on the HbA1C (rather than your history) you would no longer be diagnosed as even a pre-diabetic! [LEFT][FONT=Open Sans][COLOR=rgb(44, 44, 44)]You don't mention how any lifestyle changes, but [B]if whatever you did is sustainable then it's had (and will continue to have) a much bigger effect on your BG than the Metformin. [/B] Doctors prescribe medication, but they can't force a patient to actually take it if they don't want to. I can't tell you what you should do but some members of this forum have continued on Metformin when their HbA1C is 'normal' and others have reduced their dose and still others have quit all Diabetes meds.[/COLOR][/FONT][/LEFT] [/QUOTE]
