[QUOTE="Robbity, post: 859194, member: 93179"] Different people have different reactions to different doses of metformin, so you'll have to find out for yourself what happens when you up [I]your[/I] dose. If your "lower go" problems are toilet related and do continue when you go onto a higher dose of metformin then ask/demand(!) to be put on the slow release (SR) version, which generally helps clear up any upset stomach or diarrhoea issues. And definitely consider getting a meter (SD Codefree as suggested) as doing your own testing really ought to be an essential part of our personal diabetes management. Robbity [/QUOTE]
