[QUOTE="cugila, post: 75864, member: 15325"] Metformin does rarely cause light headedness and dizziness. So might well have been the cause. You did the right thing in discussing it with your HCP team. Extract from information about Metformin. Seek medical attention right away if any of these SEVERE side effects occur when using Metformin: Severe allergic reactions (rash; hives; itching; difficulty breathing; tightness in the chest; swelling of the mouth, face, lips, or tongue); chest pain or discomfort; [color=#FF0000]dizziness or lightheadedness[/color]; fast or difficult breathing; feeling of being unusually cold; fever, chills, or persistent sore throat; general feeling of being unwell; muscle pain or weakness; slow or irregular heartbeat; unusual drowsiness; unusual or persistent stomach pain or discomfort; unusual tiredness or weakness. Hope that helps. Ken. [/QUOTE]
