[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 893913, member: 21149"] Hi and welcome. Age 35 is quite low to be diagnosed as T2. Can you let us know your BMI/weight and typical diet. If you are not overweight then T1 becomes a possibility so let us know and we can provide further guidance. Metformin is notorious for causing stomach problems but for most these only last a week or two. If they continue do ask the GP to change you to the Slow Release (SR) version. They don't prescribe it to start with 'cos it's a bit more expensive (silly, yes). Do read the Metformin leaflet. I think it can conflict with liver problems so discuss with the GP if needed. If you are not overweight and possibly T1 then Metformin isn't needed and other tablets can be used. [/QUOTE]
