Thank you everybody for your suggestions. A quick update. Last night I went to one out of hours GP, after called 111, I explain him that I was affected by all the metformin side effects included metallic taste. He suspected reflux and prescribed me Gaviscon. Probably didn't understand me, btw...

Thank you Brunneria: 1) No didn't arrange an appointment with the GP even because if I am lucky can have one in 2 weeks 2) I had just read the metformin controindication are exactly my symptoms https://www.drugs.com/sfx/metformin-side-effects.html 3) I checked the website you gave me and seems...

Thank you for your answer and now I see the mx is 2500 mg per day !!!! I forget in the previous post that I also feel like unbalanced not always but quite a lot of time.

Hello to all, from a couple of days I have a tight feeling in the chest, but in reality I have the belly so swollen and tense and I feel as if I had eaten a whole cow, but I have not eaten anything. I have a slight twinge in the liver area that comes and goes. Last night I went to A & E thinking...

Today I started seriously the LC diet after almost one month of average reading of 11-12 mol/l.e Today fasting 8.9 Breakfast 3 scrambled eggs 2 sliced beacon Lunch couple of slice of ham 30 g of blue cheese salad with lettuce tomatoes olives and avocado After 2 hours reading 5.6 before dinner...

This is a nice news for me that I like the seafood! Usually about labels in supermarket I already check for all green when is possible.

Thank you Guys gonna have a look on all articles to learn what is good to eat.

Thank you ExD very helpful. Well sorry for my bad english. I meant for "clean past and bread" as cancel pasta and bread from my diet, that can for sure improve my BG readings. I would try the cauliflower mash as you said probably I like it, for the rest yes I like beef, pork, lamb and grilled...

Hi Guys, I'm quite new in this matter, but want to follow the low-carb diet (if is possible clean bread and pasta because my BG increase eating them). I have some food that don't like too much, for example:broccoli, cauliflower, chicken, salmon. Can I use Parma ham instead? I like it and should...

Well me too. I am uncomfortable over 7/8 mmol/l become to have my face warming, the ears are like in airplane, palpitations etc. Unfortunately since the doctor stopped glicazide my BG is everyday over 8. They stopped glicazide because my HbA1C is 45, and also because glicazide + 3g per day of...

Yeah Thank you Guys I see am not feel alone. I was diagnosed diabetic type 2 in 2010 in my own country, but due to continuos changes of countries for my work I didn't really had a good nutrition habit. Now I am stable in UK and I am followed by very good doctors and also with this forum I...

Well thanks everybody for your suggestions after 15 minutes walked and after 2 hours the BS is 12.5 which is quite normal since the GP stopped the Glicazide. Thanks again

Repeated the measure just 20 minutes after dinner and after my last dose of metformine now is 14.9

Hi Guys, unfortunately this afternoon I had and ice cream (is the first time after years) and my BS value before dinner was 17.4!!!!! I had hamburger and broccoli for dinner but now I am very concerned about this 17.4 value. What I can do to down quickly the BS, please?! Is the first time see...

Well I added all your suggestions and seems going better: Today no metformine Eating only chicken soup Stopped Powerade 500ml of water with salt ready in case I feel again with the mouth completely dry. Diarrhoea seems going better even has a green color Let see what happen next.

Hi Resurgam, interesting case. Unfortunately in my particular case I ate some contaminated food in a restaurant outside and that was the cause. Now I have the BS at 16.8 uffff....and I ate nothing. Thank you everybody for your support...as I can see I am not alone :-)

Thank you Chook, well...before was 3000mg of metformine 60mg of Glicazide and for 4 months Victoza but now only metformine and I will start a low carb diet because the BS is always 10-11 after meals.

Thank you Guys, yes I get Metformine 3g per day divided by 1g breakfast,1g after lunch and 1g after dinner. So the doctor told me to not to take metformin until the diarrhea does not disappear permanently and eat normally. But I think I will resist the hunger pains until the diarrhea is gone. I...
