these reading seem totally different from what i'd

expect...

Do you know what your bg's were two hours after eating? I would expect bg's

to be normal 6 hours after eating.

Do I understand correctly, that Metformin made your blood sugar level drop

rapidly? thanks, Alice

well i know one thing, i decided to back down to just one of those in the

morning because i have had trouble with my sugar dropping rapidly....so far so

good.........

Hi Larry,

How often are you eating? I'm not on meds but I have to eat at least every

4 hours.

Hi all,

I take 4 x 500mg Metformin four times a day - my doctor says not more than 750mg

at a time. It also takes 3-4 weeks for your body to settle down when you start

taking it, and make sure you take it with food,
