Hi all, I have been experiencing some dizziness and swollen feet with pins and needles for past 3-4 days. only diagnosed 9 days ago and currently take 1 x 500mg Metformin daily. Feel worse now than 10 days ago!! Anyone know if this is normal? Ta
 
As the body gets used to the lower glucose levels in the blood we get some odd symptoms and side effects, so this could be what you are experiencing. I think I'd err on the side of caution and go see the doctor, if only for the sake of reassurance.
 
Hi as my levels reduced I had similar symptoms it all levelled out once my body got use to running on lower bg levels.
