Confused
I had another question I meant to add to my last post. I was put on Metformin when found out I had Insulin resistant Reactive Hypoglycemia. I took for a month & noticed there was no refill. I called nurse & was told they wanted to make sure I was not Diabetic. My question.......what symptoms would I have on Metformin that would be a sign of that & not Hypoglycemia. When I did my glucose test .....think I was tested 5 times....first was 166 and last 44.
You might or might not have symptoms of diabetes. Were those fasting blood sugars? If so, 166 is definitely in the diabetes range. I don't know too much about reactive hypoglycemia, but my supposition is it means you experience lows but not highs. You should be testing yourself and finding out more about your condition and how diet contributes to better blood sugars. You might get better response from posting in the Type 2 forum.
