Hello, Kaur! How are you doing?
As you stated, your GP said that you are borderline, so that would mean that you're not actually diabetic yet, but you are showing the signs that you could become fully diabetic if precautions aren't taken now.
Metformin is an oral antidiabetic medication and it may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, flatulence and stomach pain.

If your doctor feels that you need to take this medication to get things under control, then it would be advisable to do so.
Did you discuss your concerns with them?
