[QUOTE="sunnyh, post: 22294, member: 3368"] Well, today I called my Dr's office and told the receptionist and nurse my problem. The nurse looked up liquid metformin, which is, from what she said, only available to people like me, who can't get the pills down. I was told the Dr would call me back to talk to me about it, and she would call this afternoon. She never did. Am I wrong to think that a Dr would be concerned about a patient who is insulin dependent, and not able to swallow the other tablets? I haven't had my tablet meds now for 2 days, (except for my blood pressure pill, which is very small). I told the nurse all of this...still they never called back. A diabetic doesn't feel on top of the world as it is, and being let down by your surgery doesn't help at all. This is the same type of help I got when I told them about not being able to swallow food...even after I went to the hospital and had a camera stuck down my throat to dislodge a bit of food. I feel like I'm better off without Drs now, or at least this type of Dr. SunnyH [/QUOTE]
