Good idea, GraceK - worth a try.
BaliRob, the magnesium citrate I take is called Magasorb. It comes in 150mg tablets and I take 3 a day, one with each meal. I'm definitely better with it than without it. I find mine on Ebay. You can't overdose on magnesium - you just excrete any excess.
Diane, thanks for the info about your doctor's comment. That's the first time I've heard it from an "official" source. Don't worry too much about the weight loss, unless it's too much and too fast - Metformin is supposed to aid weight loss and to reduce the appetite. In the States it can be prescribed for just that, but not over here. Even I am eating less since I've been taking it :shock: :wink:
