What Happens In The Body After Stopping Metformin?

[@anangryranger]

December 2021 I crashed. Was in ICU for over a week. The VA had me on taking nearly a dozen meds. I'm almost convinced they were trying to bump me off. Switching to a civilian doctor was a smart move on my part. Was put on insulin, metformin, and a couple other meds. Lost weight I didn't need to loose. Blood sugar levels were up and down daily. Then I simply stopped all meds in November of 2022. Went to a very low carb diet. Lots of protein and exercise. Today, my blood sugar levels are stable. No spikes or drops. I now take a high power multi vitamin and 2,000mg. of cinnamon. That's all, and I've never been better. My doctor was amazed. She thought at first I was wrong about this, but the A1C tests proved good. After 20 years of being type 2, I'm no longer dependent upon any meds. Yeah, metformin was not all that great for me. Glad I beat the odds. 😏

WHAT VITAMIN 🙏🏻

[@arthurashley6414]

Thank you for sharing your experience

[@anangryranger]

@@Berlina-v1p I'm not recommending this as a medical profession, but I sought for a multi-vitamin high in the following vitamins; C, D, E, B6, B12, and Chromium. I found this in Centrum Silver Adults 550+. And don't forget the Cinnamon! Try to find Cinnamon capsules that provides close to 2,000mg equivalent. This is crucial for sugar metabolism! The above, combined with a strict low sugar and low carbohydrate diet and moderate exercise has resulted in my successfully becoming free of all medications and controlled sugar levels. Please bear in mind that this was successful for my condition. It works for my particular case. It may not for everyone. Remember, I embarked upon this method of treatment with having consulted with my doctor. Unlike the VA, she's not a "pill roller", and is quite open to more natural ways to improve the health of her patients. I was, in fact, a test case that proved successful. Yes, the supplemental system was the result of my own research, but I proceeded with my doctor's blessings. My goal was to escape the pills the VA was poisoning me with, and especially the insulin injections! I have a tremendous fear of needles!! It took every ounce of determination to inject myself every morning. At 74, and having endured abuse of the VA for two decades, I am fortunate to have a free thinking doctor who supported my own research, and monitored my progress. In closing, this route I took was successful, but it may not have the same results for others. We're not all the same but it's not impossible to be free from medications to return to normal. I hope this explains better the methods I utilized, and I hope it gives another something to investigate for their improvement.

Nobody does that in Italy or most Europe and they are way healthier than any of us in the US.

I was diagnosed diabetic when I went into the hospital with an infected wrist that had gone septic. My A1c was 12, I don't blame them though I had tested in the past and hadn't been diabetic. They put me on Metformin, but after 3 months my A1c returned to a normal range (NOT prediabetic, but low to mid 5's) I started reducing Metforming. What hasn't been discussed here, The doc told me a needed to ween off of it, like I went to 4 tablet a day going for 1 a day adding 1 a week until I reach 4 a day. I weaned off much the same. July 4th, 2023, about 5 months after being diagnosed and 3 months after being put on Metformin, I took my last pill. FWIW My blood sugar was in the normal range the next 2 - A1c tests. So talk with your doc, and perhaps gradual reduction is the way to go.

Last year august 2023 i was diagnosed with diabetes. The homedocter gave me metformine 1000 mgr. In 5 weeks i lost 6 kilo's and i was not obese. I had a lot of problems and became weak. After that i used Berberine what helped me very good. Totally i lost 9 kilo's of weight and my hair fell out. I have Hashimoto as well. The diabetes nurse told me to stop using Berberine and now i am just keeping a diet low in carbs and i am doing fine for months now.

@sonjaruis8490, I'm glad to hear you're doing fine now on a low carb diet! Keep it up and always consult with your healthcare provider. If you feel weak or have any concerns, don't hesitate to reach out to them. Wishing you the best in your journey!

Benfotiamine didn’t help my blood sugars. Super Berberine didn’t help either. I must be the ultimate exception to the rule. Or I need to go on a no fat, no carb diet! 😡 Basically lettuce and beans.

@williampapadopoulos8145, it sounds like a tough situation! Without proper diet and exercise even strongest medicines won’t work. Don't lose hope, everyone's body reacts differently. Maybe a consultation with a endocrinologist could help. Hang in there! 💪

@bettykunjilz4575, sorry to hear about your concern. It's hard to say without a proper diagnosis, I'd recommend you consult with a dermatologist for the right solution. Stay healthy!

Ridiculous state? .. if you don't like the way the state's ran you should get tf out ..

[@SugarMDs]

@privateinfo4820, You are a typical Floridian. You just exposed character of half of Florida to the rest of the world. You typical red neck! You should go back wherever your ancestors came from and leave Florida beautiful. You should not be watching KZbin because KZbin is run by people who think like me. All opinions are welcome.
