Hey there Poppa! I'm also on Lantus, and I had to increase it by two units every few days until I found what worked for me. Don't be discouraged by your numbers. The Metformin will help the Lantus work more efficiently, once you find the correct dosage of Lantus. It took me a while but it seems that 70 units of Lantus is what works for me. Yours might be a lot lower. When you reach the correct dosage, you'll see the numbers drop to where you want them.
Also, Metformin is good for your heart, so there are other benefits to taking it.
Hang in there and don't let the numbers get you down....you will see them improve soon, and when that happens, you'll feel a lot better about yourself.
