[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Have an appointment for an endocrinologist! Currently checking blood glucose in morning and after every meal and vigorous exercise 6 to 7 days a week. Numbers are coming down with metformin but not normal yet. But then again it’s only been 10 days. But I am eating very well.[/quote] You don’t specify what you mean by “very well,” but for diabetics, carbs are the enemy, regardless what the diabetes association might say at any given time. Metformin is a standard treatment. There are drugs you can add to increase insulin production (e.g., repaglanide), send sugar out through the kidneys (e.g., jardiance), and the various metabolic injections (e.g., Ozempic), as well as short and long-acting insulin. The endocrinologist is the person to see. [/quote] Yes, you surely know better than the diabetes association! :roll: [/quote]
