I was given metformin 1000 m/s. I had tummy pains and felt a bit sick , but then the nurse doubled the dose, 2000m/ then my symptoms increased, now really I started to feel very sick, and had stomach pains, And runs to the bathroom increased, BUT I had not connected it to these tablets, then pain got even worse and being sick at least once or twice a week, increased toilet trips too! I was told by the nurse you take thyroxine daily so why not take metformin! I just happened to notice something I passed one day, and my daughter said put the tablet overnight in a glass with lemon, I did , and yes it was the same, I stopped the tablets ,and the violent pain went, it was so bad at times I thought I would need A and E , I suffered for over two years, Now I control my diabetics , I was a vegetarian now I am a vegan, my results are all fine, so medical people please stop wasting NHS money and causing misery to so many people, think food before tablets, I thought I had stomach cancer so lived with that fear for over two years,
