[QUOTE="berylc, post: 1105244, member: 42210"] Hi meJulie I've been off metformin SR for about 3 wks now and my bowel 'problem' has gone away! The only trouble is my blood sugars went up, but I still can't work out what foods are good and what are bad! I've got a meter now (paid for by myself as Dr won't give one) and I've started to test. I've started back on Metformin SR, taking 1 x 500 breakfast and teatime (before I was 2 x 500) and I'm watching to see how that goes. Then once I have the LCHF diet sorted I will try to come off the meds. Metformin had taken over my life, but I was told by the dietician that it was an allergy to food. so years of suffering for nothing.Actually the NHS dietician was quite useless! I'm hoping that I can cope with the lower dose of Met SR, but only time will tell. [/QUOTE]
