What's this?

Yep. Same here. Initial weight loss, extreme thirst, blurry vision came

on very suddenly. My bgl was over 500. Took Metformin for around 30 days until my sugar was staying around 80. With diet and exercise. Stopped medicine and continued with diet exercise regime. So far so good.

Ouch. I've been a diabetic for so long I vaguely remember life before... -- Major Kong 10/11/2017 12:25PM

I went from 12.1 to 5.6 in 10 months. Exercise is the answer -- Cruizer 10/11/2017 11:49AM
