Hi
Until approx 3 weeks ago I was taking Avandia and decided to stop after reading about the side effects. I had not linked how ill i was feeling and within days felt so much better. Weight has dropped off too and appetite has gone back to normal. I have made an appt to see my Dr to discuss this but could not get in until early Sept. In the mean time I received a letter yesterday from her asking me to stop taking Rosiglitazone and start Pioglitazone. I am dubios and don't really want to. What are everyone's thoughts and does this drug have the same side effects or concerns?
Would appreciate your thoughts.
Many thanks
Joy
