[QUOTE="SimonCrox, post: 1974056, member: 388174"] Hi, sorry that you are having a tough time. I think that your UC is already upsetting your life big time (presuming that the metformin is not contributing to your diarrhoea); I would never tell anyone what to do, but your colitis sounds quite bad, and (sorry to be miserable) could get worse. If it gets worse, you might need decent dose oral or intravenous steroids which will really mess up your diabetes. So perhaps reviewing your choice of treatment for the UC might make your life better and avoid serious illness in the future It is worth being aware of a study that showed gliptins (normally very well tolerated drugs) may increase the risk of inflammatory bowel disease, so perhaps be cautious if offered these [URL]https://www.bmj.com/content/360/bmj.k872[/URL] Best wishes [/QUOTE]
