Hi Hector and Welcome,

I used to love Hector's House too, brings back memories! Wasn't Joanna Lumley behind the voice of Za-za! I digress......

METFORMIN. I won't lie and say it was a doddle because it wasn't! I'm on 2 x 500mg (half doze) and it hurt my stomach quite a bit at first. Persevere, your system does get used to it, and now, I hardly realise I'm taking it. I'm terrible at remembering though..

Good luck,
Donna 🙂

Hi Zaza and welcome to the site.
'Tis the best place for unbiassed advice based on a wealth of experience as well as useful source for relevant links.
Some folks are a bit zany, but I've yet to encounter any unfriendly or negative input (unless you count the mickey taking that appears to be rife amongst others)🙂

 

[alisonz]

After my first week I could barely keep anything down when I took it, I called the doctor and he put me onto the slow release version since then no trouble at all 🙂

metformin

thanks for the replies re metformin,i really hope that when i get checked in April i don't get put on it,my stomach hardly tolerates anythin,born with chronic ibs and being overweight and doing too severe diets have left me in a right mess,i can't eat certain foods as it is.Also i have really high BP usually app 180/105 ish but can only tolerate the diltiazem that i take for my angina/bp,non of the others at all,they've tried them all!! so god help me with metformin!!!!!!!
