A1c
Doctor called about my labs done Friday. I haven't seen them but he said my a1c was 4.9 and that was low. So I should only take 500 mg of metformin. Is that low? Is 500 mg even worth taking? Huh....

Cholesterol
So I started keto in May after a high blood sugar scare. In September I had my cholestorol checked for the first time ever. Now six months later I have something to compare it to.

Fasting
I saw the diabetic nutritionist today and she said that fasting would cause my liver to make more glucose and that could be why I still have high fasting blood sugar. I drink coffee in the morning with coconut oil and butter so it's not technically fasting, right? I'm not sure what to make of this because at the same time…

Lurking
Hiya everyone. I've been lurking around for a few months now. Started keto on 5/12 after I was shocked by an exceptionally high blood sugar. (Felt really strange and used my moms kit for BS and blood pressure.) Four months later and my blood sugars are still about 130's. (Did drop into 90's for a couple weeks at first.)…
