High Insulin Levels Despite Metformin Use

A year ago, my glucose went up to 1153. This was my first time being diagnosed with diabetes or having high blood sugar. It took about a month to go back to normal and has been normal/low-normal ever since. I’m on Metformin 500 once a day. I’m hoping I have reversed the diabetes. Has anyone else had a really high glucose?

I was diagnosed 4-5yrs ago I have been taking metformin 1500mg for iy since and it hasn't done anything for me. My weight has also been increasing even though I don't eat unhealthy and only eat when my alarm goes off because I have adhd and tend to forget the time. My glucose level also has always been normal even before metformin so I don't think I have an insulin problem. I'm planning on seeing an endocrinologist soon because my obgyn told me that this is all she can do is give me metformin. I was thinking about testing testosterone and HBA1C level before I see the doctor as well. My periods have been every month since 7 years ago but they are short and light. What other meds are you guys taking so I can ask my doctor about them as well.

my dr pharmacy and everything are pushing for insulin i rather just take pills. i dont check my blood regularly im deadling with family crisis past several months my diebets is the last thing on my mind but my pharmacy and dr keep harrasing me to check my lvls and take more metformin im on 500mg cuz i had diarrhea any time i coughed or sneezed when they put me on 1500 mg metformin....help?
