[QUOTE="Patricia21, post: 896601, member: 113372"] Hello. I was put on Metformin SR,I had problems for about three months,feeling sick ,stomach pains,and I was only on 1 x 500mg. I did search other meds but decided to continue. Reading round the forum I dont think 1 x 500mg does a lot for blood sugar,but I didnt know any better at the time,now I am used to them and have no problems I will continue to take them. Changing the way I eat has done wonders,I have gone from 58 to 44 HbA1c in a year,following a lower carb diet. I could come off the Metformin now,but decided to continue because If I ever had to go on them again at a later date I would have to go through the problems again. All the best [/QUOTE]
