if your blood sugar when down that far in reality.
Metformin blocks glucose formation by the liver. This happens between meals, to keep blood glucose steady. Glucose is formed from amino acids when carbs are not eaten, fasting, or whatever. If your liver cannot make glucose for you properly...suppressing it further does not sound like a good idea to me! I was on Metformin for a few months, (non diabetic)-- for insulin resistance, and it caused severe morning hypoglycemia and dizziness. I had to stop taking it.
