You could very well be IR. You should ask MD what he thinks about metformin, and you taking it. Also, you may have a sluggish thyroid. If you have both, it is like a double whammy, and next to impossible to lose. I suggest that you try taking coconut oil. Take in 3 doses...one upon rising, one midday, one at bedtime. I believe it kickstarts your thyroid. I have been taking it and I have so much more energy, and you can feel the heat it produces almost immediately. The best I have found is here:

You can order and it is reasonably priced. There is plenty of good info there as well.
I have another ? for you...do you eat a lot of soy?
