Does anyone else feel ill if they have to many carbs while on slow release Metformin?

Too many carbs make most of us feel ill, with or without Metformin!

What I meant was "if your blood sugars levels are within range"
I'm sorry but I really don't understand what you are saying..I found metformin a horrible experience so stopped taking it after three weeks. Maybe I'm not the best person to comment.

It is probably the carbs making you feel ill if your body isn't used to them any more, not your blood sugar levels. It could be the Metformin, but I don't take meds so can't comment. I do know that too many carbs at one sitting make me feel bloated, uncomfortable, and sleepy.

I am throwing up and cannot figure out what's caused it. This has happened several times.

Give yourself the best present you can, read up on LCHF and Keto diets

I've found these videos which are informative and helpful
