Does anybody know if there is a strong correlation between the amount of carbohydrate you eat, and the body's tolerance to Metformin Slow-Release?
I currently take 2g of Metformin SR per day. I've been on a low-carb program for the last 7 days and I've had severe diarrhoea.
I took my sugars, and they are 5.8 (which is much lower than normal for me) and so I'm wondering whether reducing the Metformin may help?
I'm not asking for medical advice on the reduction on Metformin, I just wanted to know if anyone else has had a similar experience and if they did, what did you do about it?
