[QUOTE="Rose22, post: 2114001, member: 509613"] For the first week I couldn’t see it working, my numbers where still high, especially by the end of the day. However the next week my numbers came right down, along with how well I felt. I had an upset stomach for 10 days and felt achy and shattered. I carried on for four weeks as had review with dr. I’m still on 40 once a day which is lowest amount, don’t think I could go higher. I’ve explained to dr don’t feel well on it, but to be fair when numbers very high I don’t feel well either. I think for me I had to adjust from a high blood sugar to a low, including false hypos over the first few weeks. My numbers are now better after taking it for a month. My dr has said take it until see diabetes the end of sept in the hospital. I tried metformin sr, awful gastro side effects, was also vit d deficient after taking it for months, went dr saying achy legs. I tried alogliptin, didn’t do anything and my numbers increased! Tried a Flozin, awful weeing all the time and yeast infection after just 5 days from so much sugar in my system plus gave me heart palpitations. There’s lots classes of drugs, but I seem to have side effects! Just want to feel well. How are your sugar levels? Might be contributing to the extreme tiredness? I know if I’m running high I struggle to keep my eyes open. I do eat a Mediterranean low carb diet. Have to watch dont drop too low on Gliclazide. [/QUOTE]
