I finely did it and wen't full blown diabetic,I am now on metform 2x a day and will start taking them as soon as I get the pills.Over the last few weeks I have had major problems with my back and knee so I have had to take it easy and not do to much till I get the pain issues back under controle,at the moment I am getting an injection next week and am also working on getting the dose right for new pain pills.I know what being diabetic is and how it is supposed to be handled,what I need to find is a support group cause other than hear I don't have one.The doctor said she had someone come in once a month at her clinic for individual support that I can get,and I will,but I wan't to talk to people who deal with this in real life not a doctor who is talking over my head for the most part.What is metform,how dose it work and what are the negative side to it,what can I do to deal with this on a daily basic all I got was the normal speal of doctor talk.I would appresheate any information I can get.
