Question for Doreen
Regarding your post on another thread about psyllium, etc.
I take metformin, 500 mg at breakfast and 500 mg at dinner. All along I drank sugar free metamucil at bedtime - 3 or 4 hours after dinner. I recently (about 6 weeks) added more metamucil at breakfast time. Now my fasting bg seems to be inching up. My last A1c in early December was 5.4 but it won't be that good next time if this bg keeps going up. You said to take your fiber at least one hour before or two hours after supplements or meds. I've been taking my vitamins in the morning, too!
Thanks for bring up this important issue. This may very well be my problem - and something I can actually do something about.
How exactly does the fiber interfere with the supplements and meds?
