Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have just been told I am insulin resistance. My recent blood test revealed and insulin level of 73.3 and a glucose level of 121... I have never had this before. Dr. wants to put me on Metformin. If this really necessary? I am a healthy 63 year old female and have never had to take any medications.
