[QUOTE="Frenchclass, post: 1612588, member: 92948"] From taking Januvia I now have had low reading 6 to 7(prior 10 to 12 ) in the morning and at about 10 pm a similar reading. The problem is that at about 6 pm I get a bad acid stomach so cannot eat an evening meal, maybe a sandwich and a banana. I also get it in bed and have to take a tablet. I feel this is due to the new tablet Januvia which is working well, but i do feel I could drop one of the metformins which I have hoping it will not effect my stomach so much and my reading are still a lot lower than they were before. It is difficult to talk to my dabetic doctor as I have to make an appointment and I have only just seen him. My A1C will be a lot lower in 3 months and because of my chemo he is happy with around 8 and I know it will be a low lwer than this going by my daily readings. I will see what happens when I have chemo on Friday an might well take the 3rd Metformin for the first week. I do not want to lose any weight so I have to eat and I do feel all the metformin is now affecting my eating too much. It is hard enough having chemo ever 3 weeks, but I cope well I feel, but to have this low appetite and bad stomach as well makes it a bigger struggle so I am doing whatI feel is best for me, and sometimes we have to do that.
