Manzar, Your post regarding your test numbers was a little confusing to me.
Our doctors mus be using a different scale or you doctor might be targeting a different set of base line controls.
your post>>my test report for INSULIN RESISTANCE was 7.40 on a[6.00-27.00 normal value] that means my insulin resistance is already low..<<

Generally the condition of Insulin Resistence occurs in both the "Hyperglycemic" (the diabetic)
or the "Hypoglycemic" (the person with low blood sugar.
Either condition is caused by the dysfunction of the Pancreas.
The Hyperglycemic will have a Pancreas that is underproducing Insulin. In its more degraded state of slowed production is where insulin shots enter the picture.
The Hypoglycemic will have an over productive Pancreas.
That means that the Pancreas is pumping far too much Insulin because the cells are resistent and the available Insulin in the body can't be used.
The key to both the Diabetic and Hypoglycemic is to find the substance that makes the cells in the body more sensitive to insulin.
In some blood tests you will be looking for a reference range that will show the levels of sugar in your blood.
The lower your blood sugar drops, the more likely the chance of falling into a coma or suffering brain dammage.
When the blood sugar raises too high, it wrecks your other organs and can cause blindness and permanent dammage to your nerves creating a condition of Diabetic Neuropathy.
It also increases ones chances of having a stroke.
Metformin(Glucophage), is the medication given to both Diabetics and hypoglycemic patients who have the problem of Insulin Resistence.
The diagnosis of insulin resistence is shown by the rise or fall of blood sugar in a controled reference range.
The reference range varys slightly with respect to which testing method is used. However, in general any blood sugar under 60 is considered low and in need of attention and any blood sugar above 200 is considered in need of attention, although many Diabetics will raise higher.
Metformin (Glucophage) works by making the cells in the body sensitive to the available Insulin and there by letting the Insulin pass through the "doors" of the body cells so the body can use it's insulin.
I'm not sure what low insulin resistence means.
If one needs Glucophage then I would imagine that having a higher resistence would be a problem.
That would be High Resistence.
Low resistence would mean that there is not much resistence and since resistence is the problem, then maybe your Doctor is refering to something else.
So if you have Insulin Resistence with either the problem of an under productive Pancreas, or an over productive Pancreas, then the medication of choice is Metformin(Glucophage) There are some additional meds for the problem available but I'm thinking that Metformin is the best choice.
This particular med is also given to women with cystic ovarys because the dysfunctional pancreatic action stimulates the ovary to over produce androgens hence the acne and facial hair and weight gain etc...etc...etc...
Your questions>>1.SHOULD I BE TAKING THIS MEDICINE OR NOT?[as it is given to dibetic patients.<<
Metformin(Glucophage is the medication choice and prescribed treatment for Insulin resistence and/or Cystic Ovarys and the problems of excess androgens.
Your questions>>2.WILL THIS MEDICINE CURE MY PROBLEM?<<
Probably not. But it will help you to learn how to control the problems and hopefully maybe avoid becoming diabetic if you are not already diabetic.
Insulin Resistence in it's Hypoglycemic stage is a pre Diabetic condition. Metformin(Glucophage is an anti diabetic medication.)
Prevention of diabetes depends on genetics as well as food and exercise and life style choices.
your questions>>3.WHAT IF I SUFFER HYPOGLYCEMIA?<<
You follow your doctors orders and learn to eat with respect to the condition and exercise and take your blood sugar readings at home and work closely with your endocrinologist.
Your Questions>>>IF I HAVE TO TAKE LOTS OF SUGAR WITH IT...HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO LOOSE WEIGHT?<<
This is a rather long answer for this one post.
Basically, you really need to study up on the nutritional needs of the Diabetic. You will need to follow the good nutrition sense guidelines of anyone with Insulin Resistence.
your questions>>5 WHAT OTHER TREATMENTS ARE PRESCRIBED FOR THIS PROBLEM?<<
As far as I know, preventative medicine begins with a medication that will help increase the sensitivity of your body cells to the available Insulin in your blood. Diet is essential and so is exercise.
You need to learn about the roles of sugar and protien in your diet and metabolism.
Additionally depending on what your Doctor finds, you might have other treatments in addition to the meds, diet and exercise.
You are lucky. 500mg standard Glucophage is not too bad. That probably means your condition is probably not too terrible.
I take 500 mg of the extended release Glucophage 3X a day and I have to deaal with my diet extremely prudently or my blood sugar drops into the coma zone.
And believe me, once you dip past a certain level, you never, never want to do that again.
I have no complaints about taking Glucophage.
I merrily eat my carefully constructed diet.
It's better to feel well than be caught in a series of body responses that will literally take your breath away.
You are extremely lucky that someone figured out your problems.
There are a horrifying number of women who just get told that they have emotional hypochondria problems.
It's a life saving event to be correctly diagnosed.
Good Luck, Take Care and Be Well,
