[QUOTE="Providence 62, post: 1961883, member: 153605"] In my experience Metformin was an absolute nightmare. Even just one 500mg a day, with food and slow release made me SO ill. My symptoms were similar to yours. Try the advice of eating something fatty with your dose and talking to the doctor to get slow release. But if this doesnt work get your medication changed. I suffered for 18 months - my 'metformin moments' are still legendary among my friends and I was thinking of taking out shares in the company that produces immodium. Doc switched me to glicazide and sitagliptin evetually. Oddly enough my uncle, who is in his mid seventies, takes 2000mg a day with not a single side effect. You have my sympathy, keep us posted.
