[QUOTE="JoKalsbeek, post: 1961011, member: 401801"] I was on it for weeks, ended up with bleeds and everything. In the meantime I read what I could about low carb high fat, switched my diet to that... Got off the meds and into the normal range that way. Never looked back. Some just don't tolerate it. You could switch to the other kind, but if I were you I'd stop these for the time being, and as soon as the runs stopped, I'd go shopping for low carb food items. I'm not allowed to say that, I guess, (forum rules, can't tell people to go off meds, but I'm just talking 2 days here) but if you're this miserable... You're not going to get the slow release kind over the weekend, and this doesn't sound sustainable . Give your insides a break, and get some eggs, meat, fish, cheese, poultry, leafy greens into you... Then at least you'll have your bloodsugars sortof sorted, (leave off the toast, bread, potatoes, corn, cereal, pasta and fruit! Anything sugary or starchy is no good), and you can go after the slow release metformin on monday, if you want to try that. A diet change has a bigger impact than Met though. Remission'd be in the cards. Stay hydrated! Good luck! Jo [/QUOTE]
