[QUOTE="Pinkorchid, post: 1323223, member: 166283"] My doctor was very understanding about Metformin. I was on the standard one but I was getting really bad indigestion and bloating I felt like I would explode so straight away she changed me to the slow release one and the indigestion and bloating stopped However I did have another problem on the slow release ones that they almost completely took my appetite away I had always had a good appetite so it was just not me not want to eat also because I was not eating enough I lost weight that I did not need to. My doctor told me to reduce the dose from the 2000mg a day I was on to a level that restored my appetite. I had to take it down to 500mg once a day before my appetite came back and my doctor was happy with that she said any dose is better than none for it's protective heart benefit [/QUOTE]
