hi don't know if anyone has had this problem but by eating healthy (fruit and veg) it seems to trigger off my ibs x
 
Trial and error, cut all from your diet, then eat one at a time, I have problems with leafy greens, oranges and beetroot.
You may find it a rogue one or 2 causing problem.

Which fruit and veg ? and how much ? Most T2's on the forum are low carbing and "healthy eating" has a different meaning as when on LCHF as most fruit and root veg are off the menu or have to be strictly controlled. Controlling T2 using LCHF involes turning a lot of what has been pushed at us as healthy eating out the window.

Metformin has different effects on different people, it gives quite a lot of people "rapid intestinal transit" however with me it had the opposite effect. . Some people who are having a hard time on Metformin find getting their GP to prescribe the slow release version helps a lot but it is early days for you and our bodies adjust to the drug.
