Default Metformin and IR

Most of the threads I've read so far (I went back a few pages, though I'm sure I've missed some) seem to relate only to how people find Met is helping their cycles. I'm curious about how people have found its effects on IR. I really do want my cycles to be normal, but I'm also excited about the fact that it can stop this horrible blood sugar rollercoaster.

I exercise regularly and eat a relatively low GI diet (though I intend to improve it even more once "The insulin resistant diet" book arrives), but even with these measures in place, I still have problems with my blood sugar. How many of you have found that it helped regulate it? And how long did it take?

Since I've been on Met, my fasting glucose has remained in the 80s.
