[QUOTE="AndBreathe, post: 625961, member: 88961"] Metformin seems to have the opposite effect on me Andbreath.It makes me feel nausea and gives me a vile taste in my mouth which makes me feel I have to eat something .I put on two stones in 8 weeks having been completely stable for four years the last time I took it despite the constant runs .I'm going to give it two weeks ...if it hasn't improved by then it's going .I was feeling really well on the low carbs but i struggled the whole day yesterday after two days on it .[/QUOTE] I would say you're right to try a little longer, then maybe a call to your Doc about trimming the dose back to see if that suits for a while? Are you taking 2 x 500mg or 1 x 1000mg? Apparently the SR meds shouldn't be chopped in two as that negates their SR benefits. The great news is, though, that you seem very committed to making a difference, the "how" is almost fine tuning if you can't get your head around the "why". But you're beyond that. [/QUOTE]
