After being diagnosed with the above 9 weeks ago, I have been taking slow release Metformin for 8 weeks (1000mg in the morning and 1000mg in the evening) after meals and I still have side effects including stomach pain, bad stomach and bloating, etc all day!! My blood sugar levels have now reduced from 33!! To between 6.2 am and 8.3 pm. I also have to inject 11 of insulin. I am tempted to reduce the Metformin- what do you think? I have a blood test in 4 weeks to establish levels, when I’m hoping to come off of Metformin! It’s making my life a misery ......
