[QUOTE="pang3e, post: 130494, member: 26180"] Hi Dobber I'm type 2 and have been on metformin 1000mgs a day for 5yrs now. The past year I started having hypos, I never used to test my bs levels until about three months ago and now only test them when I feel bad. I started by shaking, vison problems, becoming more irritable, finding it difficult to focus/concentrate and missing meals and sometimes it was down to a combination of missing meals and having taken two tabs together which lowered my bs levels enuf to have a hypo. My diabetic nurse told me one useful thing - that is, if you're taking - say two tabs per day then you can take them separately at different times of the day if it's about missing meals or dosage being too much- I thought I had to take them both together so its a good idea to discuss this with your nurse. Hope that helps :o Ang [/QUOTE]
