i am on a pretty decent carb level.
my glucose numbers are good
i had a glucose test along with insulin levels and the results are not good.
i am to start metformin 4 weeks ago but have had other problems and have delayed starting it so as i dont get side potential side effects mixed up

glad you are doing well

I don't recall if you are still taking the statins for cholesterol?

If so you need to supplement CoQ-10 as well. Statins block the natural synthesis in the liver of CoQ-10 which is a natural substance we need for muscle and cardiac health and energy.

So look into that option as well.
about 300mg of oil based form (soft gelcap)
or 100mg a day of the new water based soluble type.

thanks very much MrsD.
you are such a great mine of information.
i have not tackled going off the statins.
the dose will come down probably soon tho.
the bit of weight i have lost has allowed me, so far, to get my BP meds down a bit. the statins are next in line after i get onto the metformin which will be after i sort out my cardiac irregulatities.

it has been a torrid last few months !!
