[QUOTE="Sid Bonkers, post: 1268353, member: 19121"] Cheers [USER=11441]@catherinecherub[/USER] and thanks for the link, i did know about the metformin risk but hadnt realised that proton pump inhibitors (PPI's = Omeprazole etc) were implicated, or maybe I had just forgotten or not connected the information, its amazing how something focuses the mind when it becomes personal ;) It seems that I am now between a rock and a hard place as I dont like taking too many paracetamol as they can adversely affect the liver and now I am not keen on taking the omeprazole which was helping to protect my stomach against the ibuprofen!! Still, I guess there are much worse problems I could have and the slow release Transtek patches have been a real game changer for me so I guess ill just have to accept some breakthrough pain.
