I take 120.75mg metformin a day. I have been taking it since last December, At first I had a very sore stomach but that soon cleared up. For a while now I have had an aching left arm, a bit like muscle strain pain, but in my lower arm, it feels like the bone aches. It hurts when I lift my arm to brush hair, or hold things. Do you think it could be the metformin causing it? I have a Drs appointment next Thursday, I will mention it to him.
