| Sometimes I wonder if the PCP's are just conforming to some arbitrary protocol handed down to them by the insurance companies (i.e. patient presents at age definitely NOT juvenile therefore T2 diagonosis, maybe prescribe metformin, the first line of meds thrown at T2s). That is what happened to me, and it was only after I saw no improvement on metformin that I got the referral to see an Endo, and more tests were run.
Lilmoe, my recommendation is to keep a dietary log, and test 2 hrs after a meal, as well as upon waking. After a couple of weeks of this, try to look at the big picture as see where you can make diet modifications. You stated in your first post that you are not overweight, so be careful about cutting carbs and losing too much weight.
Good luck!

Aug '09: On Januvia, 100 mg, and HbA1c up slightly to 6.7%; Endo adds nightly Lantus (10 units) to help with elevated basal blood sugars.
Oct '09: HbA1c=6.3% YEAH! Lantus is helping!
Feb '10: HBA1c holding steady at 6.2% and cholesterol numbers are best they've been in years!  BUT, Endo recommends 10 mg simvastatin due to diabetes status and my father's poor cardiovascular disease history.
