[QUOTE="Mac2002, post: 812964, member: 136019"] Hi I have just read your comments re Forxiga and SR Metformin. I have been on Metformin for years and started Forxiga last July 2014. But for the last couple months I have swung from constipation to diarrhoea and had really bad griping stomach pains that are so bad I bought Buscopan to relieve the pain. Not good when I work in Special Needs School and I need to be on the ball . I don't want to come off Forxiga as it has lowered my readings but I have asked my consultant on numerous occasions if I could come off Metformin but he said no as there is no alternative. I would be interested to hear what your doctor suggested. :) [/QUOTE]
