Any diabetics out there? I have a question about Metformin.

If you are prescribed Metformin, and you are told that you have the "mild" sort of diabetes that does not require shots, can you still eat whatever you want as long as you take the Metformin?

I am asking because this is what the ex told me. He indulged in huge meals with bread and pasta, and ate enormous ice cream sundaes AFTER he told me he had diabetes. He told me he didn't have to worry about what he ate...that the medication would handle all of it.

I am asking, also, because yesterday I learned that Metformin can also be prescribed for people who have schizophrenia, or psychosis, and it never occurred to me that the ex was lying to me.

This is my fact check.
