Those number are kind of high though when you were on the Metformin, how were your eating habits?
I also was on Metformin before but not any longer and I will admit that my eating habits were horrible. I got off the Metformin due to having diarrhea every time that I took it.
Now I am on Glimepiride (Amaryl), I finally started eating better and my blood readings are below 200 which is good because before they were 220-240 before.
I still need to get my readings under 150 (morning and after dinner) for my ultimate goal. Right now my mini goal is to get to 180.
