Hello TS, may I know 11 is hbA1c or Blood Glucose? Dr prescribed oral is metformin only or combination?

11 is quite high but I doubt Dr will give single medication only, as usual start from control with medication + lifestyle modifications. If you're affordable can get Abbott arm patch glucose meter, now got buy 1 free 1. You can check your glucose from time to time, pre or post meal. Then you will know which type of food triggers your blood glucose.

So long you not yet insulin resistance, its still reversible. Ask your Dr what's the target goal for your blood glucose / hbA1c after 3 months.

For certain Diabetic patient, dr will ask them to control on fasting sugar. Because get stable insulin release will have good glucose control.

Are you getting normal metformin or metformin XR?

I think you're doing good.. from 11 to now..

Will get xr next cycle

Found the results for HBA1c,
2 months ago (9.0)
Today - 3 weeks after starting meds/food control (8.1)
*
Normally after medication, need 3-6 months. Then modify again. Get XR for whole day control, take during evening time.

Need to have some patience. Taking metformin isn't a bad thing. No need too worry about it. If the current metformin not so expensive, can direct ditch it get meformin XR.

So long your body still can produce insulin, still got hope.

If you know what food trigger your glucose, try to reduce the portion or number of intake.

When we are sleeping, blood glucose will dropped. That's how nocturnal hypoglycemia kicks in to certain patients.

Was on Metformin & Glimicron for years. Earlier this year the doctor stopped those & prescribed insulin because of the CKD.
I was diagnosed with stage 3a about 1 year ago. No specialized diet at the moment. Eating balanced meals, meds & exercise.

Microalbumin was at 189. Are there better insulin? My glucose & bp readings are in good control now.

Good medication will improve and slowing down the process, some early intensification can slow down by 10-15 years.. as we all know diabetes is a progressive diseases..

Need to consult Endocrinologist, they will tell you, if you have the budget.
