Can you tell me what the medicine that was prescribed for you does?  I have heard about glucophage, but not that.  I am have gained so much weight and don't know what to do.  As far as low carbing, I feel it is a fad diet.  I looked into a lot of them and I can't see how anyone could commit for their whole life.  The two that looked the most reasonable to me were sugar busters and carb addicts.
Good Luck
