I was on metformin for many years, then realised it was that that was giving me stomach problems. Went on slow release, that was no problem for for a few years or more. Then started having problems with that. I don't have any allergies or other problems other than diabetes. So, not for me.

Wow, it's really expensive on their website. Edited by mod

I agree, heat does make it worse, but my legs were consistently "not good". The comment about the vitamin D deficiency is interesting.

I think it's time to ditch the forum, cos this has generated well over 200 comments on facebook. And, I read comments from people who do think it caused edema. Plus, I'm going to the toilet more regular now, to pee, this is possibly due to my body working better to flush out the toxins and not...

Just looking at my legs now. Massively better than 3 days ago, when at this time you could see they would be much bigger. Nothings really changed, apart from temporarily dropping the metformin. I take insulin too, keeping the same amount on that. My body is weird lol.

Has anyone had problems with water retention in lower legs. I've been on metformin for years, and after repeated stomach ache and the runs, went onto Metformin slow release. This has been fine for many years, and recently I seem to be having the runs again and stomach ache. So, a couple of days...

Yeah, I came on here because in their email it said "CBD oil - "Literally changed my life!". I can't see it anywhere, grrrr. :)

My surgery asked me to go onto the Wavesense Jazz. Suspect it was for the cost of strips. Been on it for some time now, possibly a couple of years. When do I not become a "new" member, been a member since 2008 :)

Yeah, cereal is bad lol. i got hooked on a huge bowl of rice crispies with loads of milk, then huge mug of milky tea, luckily, didn't last too long and now back on track :)

jesus!

I am taking Citalopram and have not had any side effects. Maybe I'm a bit too chilled out lol as nothing really excites me much nowdays, apart from money lol. I had a panic attack a few years back and the doctor put me on fluoxetine(check spelling). Then on another visit some time later, another...

Sorry to butt in :) Justr had to let you know, my gooseberries are coming along nicely. I have 4 different type, but don't remeber buying 4 different lol. red hairless, green hairy and green smooth, can't remember the other one as i don't think it produces much. We have moved house, but still...

Sleep apnoea was the most likely cause for me. I thought I was a light sleeper for years, then was diagnosed with sleep apnoea. A bad night could be 4 visits, now if I don't drink too much fluid in the evening, I can sleep through the night. Really get a solid nights sleep now, but still half...

I "used to" do really long rowing sessions especially at weekends and always checked my BG before hand. Soemtimes I'd have a large helping of ice cream :shock: about an hour before and other times would have orange juice and morning coffee biscuits to nibble on each half hour or so during...
