PA and Metformin
Hi Brains Trust! As of a visit to my GP this morning, I'm staring down the barrel of Type 2 diabetes and, whilst having already begun to implement a diet/exercise regime, I was wondering what effect metformin might have on my B12 levels as I'm already SI every 2-3 weeks, depending on symptoms. I know

Diabetes and Prednisolone
Hi, just enquiring about the use of Prednisolone and its affect on diabeties. I have been a type 2 diabetic since 2016. For the first four years I managed to control it by diet only but since I was diagnosed with PMR in August 2020 my diabetes has got worse year on year. I was initially put on Metformin

Suspected endo and PCOS - can you get treatment?
Hi I have recently had a "possible diagnosis" (they don't want to say for sure) for PCOS and endometriosis. I have seen very clear cysts in both of my ovaries and I have gained 20kg despite the fact I regularly train and my nutrition is very good I heard metformin might help but how do I go about

Utterly confused.......
My BMI is 40, I have been doing the NHS Weight Management Second Nature programme and found it easy to follow, and the recipes delicious, and although I have only lost a few lbs, I didn't feel the need to snack or binge on anything. I learnt this morning that I have Type 2 diabetes and high cholesterol
