[QUOTE="swine1, post: 103028, member: 6371"] Hi. Not been on for a while but thought I would ask this! Three months ago my hba1c was 6.4 and the nurse put me on another 500mg Metformin SR. This made me feel bloated to twice my size. plus I got trapped wind and a lot of gut pain. I put up with it for a month then dropped the extra 500mg. The bloating and wind issues vanished within 24 hours and I continued taking the one 500mg. Had my bloods done last week and got a call from the surgery today can I come in and see the nurse as my hba1c is 7.6. I have type 2. I do not want to go down the painful Metformin trail again. What if anything is an alternative? My bmi is just in the good, so weight gain would probably be another step in the wrong direction. I see the nurse next week. What do I say???. Regards, swine1.
