[QUOTE="Hertfordshiremum, post: 2392551, member: 507802"] Hi I have had type 1 LADA for three years. The first year I also took metformin unfortunately even the slow release gave me upset stomach quite frequently and I had regular hypos, cutting the grass was particularly bad and even during the night. The upset stomachs got progressively worse not better and the hypos increased. My nurse suggested coming off it and seeing what happened as by this time I had a Libre and I was much better without it! More in range whereas before I would frequently hypo and when having upset stomach would be frequently hyper. Didn’t agree with me and I stuck it out for almost a year, may work for you but I suggest wearing a Libre and keep a very close eye. [/QUOTE]
