[QUOTE="Unbeliever, post: 194010, member: 30851"] [b]Re: Glicazide[/b] I am sure many of us will be able to empathise wih your feelings.. I am most cerainly not an exper in any way but 4 years afer diagnosis and on the verger of being put onto insulin I discovered this forum and turned it all around. I hope it does he same for you. I am sure hat wiser and more experienced people will be along soon but can i just say I am not surprised you are experiencing headaches! Many people suffer sidee ffects from meformin. I don' hink the way you have been taking the medicaion will help at all. Your body has o get used to hese hings . Are you taking the modified release metformin? The side effects are fewer han wih the standard release. Have you read he advice for the newly diagnosed usually given here? I am not surprised the locum knew little about diabetes or youtr medicaion. You are obviously very sressed but there is so much to learn anbout your own body and reactions o food and drugs etc that I am afraid it will take a little time. I never believed that anything or anyone would be able o help me but this forum has done so. Don't despair about your high fasting reading ye You will have to learn which foods do hat o you. Its all a mater of balance food medicaion and exercise. I am sure someone will be able to post the link to the advice for the newly diagnosed but my eyesight doesn' allow. I don't think you will be ill but you will start to feel beter when you have better control. It is acually in your own interests n for his not to happen too quickly but at a gradual steady pace. You really have to take the medication as it is prescribed.. Give it a chance. It may not be right for you but can be changed or adusted, I do hope you can elax about it all a little. Stress will cause your bg to rise even further. II don't believe anyone anywhere can solve your problems overnight but the "wise ones "here will be able to help. [/QUOTE]
