Hi,
My name is Karen. Discovered 6 months ago that my blood sugar was 496 while testing some glucometers for my business. MD prescribed Metformin 1,000mg daily. Blood sugar well controlled with blood sugars 90-130 until 3 weeks ago. No infections... however blood sugars upper 200's. I eat no more than 20 carbs per day and am very strict with this and have not cheated. Starting Levemir 10 units q HS as of tonight. One interesting thing that I question is since starting Metformin I have had severe neck pain-MD thinks this is unrelated I think it is related. Has anyone had this symptom.
