Hi all.
Having read the d/bêtes emails, thought I would contribute hopefully to the threads. I have been T2 for seven years, and as far as I can understand are coping well. Have never had upset stomach or side effects being on M/formin + statins. Plenty of flatulence/farts which have now reduced nicely being on a slow release dose. I am also on atorvastatin low dose every other day, but still get small cramps. My gp is adamant I need statins, although I don't have high cholesotrol. There is one issue though, I reckon I have become Lactose intolerant, so now use a combination of ordinary milk + lactose free. Anyone else same? Hope my grammar has not let me down.
