[QUOTE="JoKalsbeek, post: 2269591, member: 401801"] Diverticulitis with metformin thrown upon it? I'm surprised you're not curled up in a miserable ball all day. The metformin side effects should abate in about 2 weeks. If they don't, then metformin isn't really for you, and you should've been taken off of it ages ago. Just my opinion. (I was absolutely miserable while going through Metformin Hell!) Due to metformin's side effects I was switched to gliclazide instead, which has its own issues here and there... So while I was dealing with all that I decided to try the low carb way of eating, and in a few weeks time I didn't need either one. (And am off the statins for cholesterol too). So... Odds are you can do without met perfectly fine if you low carb from here on in. What's your meter telling you? How are your blood sugars throughout the day and what are you currently eating? [/QUOTE]
