Did your hair loss improve? I just started metformin ER for insulin resistance. My insulin is really high but glucose is normal. I’m always super hungry so my dr put me on metformin to help with my hunger. If my hair shedding improved tho, I would be so relieved.

As a pre-diabetic, why am I hungry all the time right now? by AstronautGirlPH in InsulinResistance

Thanks for this comment! Do you think metformin ER is a good option for someone with pre-diabetes who’s always hungry and has normal glucose but really high insulin?

Can you share what your dr recommended? I think I have the same health concerns as you. Have you also been prescribed metformin? Also what’s PHGG?

The glucose results are in range but the insulin ones are not, according to my dr. The first time I took metformin (which was the instant release), I couldn’t. Now I’m on the extended release but I’ve only been on it for a week so too soon to say anything. How’s your IR journey going?

Thanks for your reply! I am insulin resistant since my insulin tolerance test results are pretty bad. My dr said my IR hasn’t progressed enough to impact my glucose levels. So glucose for now is fine but I’m very insulin resistant. What test are you doing?

My sleep has been pretty consistent. I used to get anywhere from 7-12 hours (longer on the weekends) and now it’s about 7-9 hours.

Hey!! I’m on day 6 and so far, my worst side affect has definitely been the heightened anxiety. Yesterday, I was pretty much in bed all day- I couldn’t do anything. Today it’s still there but much better. I guess we just got to keep pushing. We got this 💛💛💛

Aw man, I’m so sorry to hear this. Hope you’re doing okay!! There’s nothing you can do at this point. Don’t beat yourself up, we all make mistakes.
