Hi everyone
On the 17th December I was put on Metformin. Due to having IBS and reading about the side effects on here I asked for the slow releasing one.
I was worried about getting the diorrhea that everyone talked about, but the opposite seems to have happened. It is getting to the point now where I have stomach ache everyday and it is making me feel dreadful. I am also so tired, I fight to keep my eyes open. I spent most of the weekend sleeping or just not having the energy to do anything and it is effecting my work.
Does any of this sound normal. It is really starting get me down and my nurse wants to double my medication in 3 weeks if my levels havnt come down. :evil:
Im also worried it could be something else, but I dont know how I work it out.
Thanks
