[QUOTE="Indy51, post: 1404772, member: 48386"] I'd say it's more than likely that metformin is causing at least some, if not all, of your issues. I guess I don't have the faith in doctors that you do - I don't trust them to check anything before prescribing. The insert for the drug I linked to above clearly says 2000 is the maximum recommended dose. There's quite a strong percentage of people who cannot tolerate metformin in any form - I seem to recall [USER=327284]@Jay-Marc[/USER] has quoted the exact details a while ago. Just as an illustration - I'm one of those people. Within 3 months of taking the minimum dose of metformin SR (500mg), I developed bleeding gastritis and a ferritin deficiency due to the occult bleeding. I wasn't implying that you were dosing yourself, just that you needed to check why you'd been given a dosage above the norm. [/QUOTE]
