Chronic Illness 2d
Almost all of my bloodwork came back. My glucose was actually perfect but my A1C was not good at all. Not quite to the point of the hospital but it’s still not good. I just am not looking forward to having to modify my life even more ugh

I’m allergic to Metformin. I am actually on a really good and new diabetes med that doesn’t have so many side effects.

When I was on Metformin it actually ruined my life, made my diabetes worse and gave me permanent stomach issues so I’m good not being on it. I can’t stand drs these days giving it out like candy without even talking about adverse side effects. I would rather die than take that again

I’m fine with legit HAES diabetes tips. But I will never touch Metformin again. It’s pretty dangerous for people with MCAS and other folks with chronic conditions
