Hi all,
I was put onto slow release after my stomach not being able to handle normal metformin (even after 9 months in). However, I've started to notice my legs cramp up late evening and during the night / early hours and the pain is excruciating. I'm drinking plenty of water and have tried eating a banana a day to help. I've spoken with my GP and rather than change my medication again, they want to give me more tablets.
Has anyone else experienced severe cramps? What did you do to resolve them? or what are you trying? Have you had any other side effects?
Thank you
