Hi all.
Decided to stop the metformin as I can no longer tolerate the side effects.
I'm a little apprehensive as I stopped taking them property a couple of weeks ago and my BGs were up slightly but I had a nasty cold and I think a slight sinus infection which had gone now.
Am I right in thinking the raised levels were the cold rather than the lack of metformin?
And another thing... I walk. Maybe 3 miles. Sometimes up hill sometimes walk less but my readings are always higher. Don't get it.
