[QUOTE="eddie1968, post: 1790372, member: 108082"] I had 90% of my colon removed years ago and the practice nurse put me on Metformin. Diarrhoea and vomiting was extensive and was hospitalised. My Colorectal Surgeon was very annoyed with this as it is contradicted for GI surgery/disease. I’m under a consultant diabetologist who has written to my GP stating I am not suitable for oral meds or a GLP-1 agonist. Only insulin for me. Anyone who has serious GI issues should not take Metformin in my opinion. [/QUOTE]
