Hypoglycemia symptoms without low blood sugar

In Type 2's who have had high BG for a long time, it is not uncommon to develop a high "set point". I have that, and a BG of say 90 will give me the mild shakes. 80 is downright scary until I test and verify it is at a safe level. This does not seem to be what is happening with you. How high were your BG readings before you started taking Metformin?

I would read between 110 and 145, most of the time. Not incredibly high, but I tended to not go low enough for enough time to offset the 145 level, so the average is high enough to raise my A1C. I haven't tested a lot since starting Metformin. I think I ought to start doing that.
