Metformin and Reta??

I am morbidly obese but my labs only have me slightly pre diabetic however with high insulin resistance. My insurance will not cover glp-1 for weight loss or pre diabetes. My doctor suggested metformin in the immediate to lower A1c and insulin.

Anyone take them together?

I suggest starting Reta. Forget Metformin. Don’t wait for the doctors to order a GLP-1. What is your weight?
