Metformin

[mrs gimli]

Hi the upset tum for me eased of after a few weeks

I had about 3 days of a dodgy tummy then it settled. TBH MY DIGESTION IS MORE SETTLED THAN IT HAS BEEN FOR A LONG TIME. (Forgot to take cap lock off!) don't know whether it's medication or low carbs but it's working for me at the moment. Good luck.

Cookie things are not getting any better for you , will gp change your meds ..do you think ..take care ..Kat

diabetic nurse said it can't be metformin because your body gets used to it.trying to say it's still gastroenteritis I had in June stool sample took in but got a feeling

Hi All

Thanks for all the reply's, its been a useful read!

How do you know if you are on the slow release metformin?
I am increasing my dosage weekly, currently on 2x 500mg tablets on my way to 4x 500mg, and my stomach is already starting to get a bit dodgy, nothing new to me though, had issues resulting in removal of Gal Bladder years ago

Nice to virtually meet you all!

Matt

my slow release is called bolamyn but still metformin

I'm on 1000 slow release. Keep a box of Loperarnide Hydrochloride 2mg just incase.Most of the time I'm ok.
