My A1C six months ago was 6.1. I asked my new PCM if I could try Metformin as my weight is not the problem. She agreed and prescribed Metformin 500 extended release, daily. My recent A1C was 5.8 and my PCM wants me to continue.
At the beginning I took Metformin with my evening meal and would wake up at night with knots in my stomach. Since my fasting sugars were good, I switched to taking it at 9am. Since I eat regularly during the day, no more knots.
