A member asked:
I was told by my pcp that i had diabetes without being tested for it and i wanna know what should i do about taking the metformin?

Family practice : I don't understand why he told you you have diabetes without testing. Even with metabolic syndrome or pre diabetes you need to be tested. Possibly your dr did testing that you aren't aware of. Ask him.
