I usually test (fasting) when I wake up (in bed). Breakfast is usually an hour or two (maybe even three) later. I know that in that time my BG will continue to rise because of me not eating and the liver dumping into my blood stream.
Over the last few days I've taken a new approach. As soon as I test on waking up I have my metformin (the dose I am supposed to have with breakfast). Since metformin is supposed to stop the liver dumping I think I am stopping my BG from rising.
Do you guys suggest this is a good approach ? Have metformin upto 2-3 hours before a meal ?
