My Doctor has prescribed Medformin for me. I am not taking this medication. However, I have regularly checked my blood sugar daily. In the mornings it is always less than 100 and most times it is 85-90. In the evenings it is anywhere from 95-122. I am a female, 69 years of age. This does not suggest I a diabetic, what do you think?
