[QUOTE="sickofit, post: 635254, member: 112266"] I too had bad problems with metformin - (Bad squits/pains/nausea my gp told me to take imodium i thought this a ridiculous idea!? I stopped taking them I felt ill just thinking about them and asked to be referred to an endocrinologist diabetes clinic at hospital - the alternative was other tablets that make you put weight on - or insulin so now im trying metformin again - but small amount 500mg once a day at night - for 3 weeks then up the dose gradually - so far ive been ok - apparently this is how it should have been done in the first place - ive been told they are by far the best thing just hope my body will accept the full dose - hope this helps [/QUOTE]
