Can i have insulin resistance if my sugar is 84-97? my dr. diagnosed me with pcos & insulin resistance. metformin makes me sweat a lot? what can i do?

84-97: Those values are fine. See what happens if you go without metformin for a few days. If the sugar remains OK that's great. If not please have your doctor prescribe a different medicine. They may be more expensive than metformin but your life would be better.
