[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 1454057, member: 94045"] Liver and kidney function blood tests are essential for diabetics, whether on Metformin or not. Here in the UK we get them at least annually, some (like me) 6 monthly. Metformin is designed to help you lose weight, not gain weight. I suggest any weight gain is down to some other reason. Too many calories? Too many carbs causing too high insulin levels which in turn causes weight gain. (insulin is the fat hormone)? Or something else, but I doubt it is Metformin. It is an appetite suppressant. [/QUOTE]
