Hi,
Newly diagnosed here, with a hba1c of 89. I have a couple of questions.
Firstly, I cycle to work (only 5 miles a day) but since starting on metformin I don't seem to have the power in my legs. I am having to drop 2 or 3 gears compared to pre diagnosis. I have changed my diet slightly, not having a bad diet previously. Is this normal? I am assuming it is because the levels of sugar are lowering?
Secondly, I have a fitbit watch that I wear to bed for the sleep analyser function (after many years of poor sleep), one of the metrics available is resting heartbeat. This seems to have increased since taking metformin. Is this normal?
