I have been taking Metformin (1500 mg) for about 6 weeks now. I have never felt bad. Am I the only one? I'm not complaining. It just seems that everyone who starts this medicine goes through a rough stage and some have to quit completely. I wake up everyday and expect to get sick, but never do. Is this usually something that's at the beginning of treatment or am I past that? I hope so because then I can just look forward to it helping me and not making me sick.
hi...im also on metformin, i started on it 6 weeks ago also, stsrted with 1000mg now up to 2000, havent had any problems with it, i like it actually its working real well my levels are at or lower than where the doctor wants them...125
I don't have a glucose monitor, so I have no idea what my levels are. I am insulin resistant with a possible pituitary problem. He said if things weren't straightened out quickly, I would be diabetc before I could blink my eyes. I eat well and exercise, but until I started on the Metformin, I couldn't lose a pound. Now, I'm down 5 pounds.....woo hoo.
I guess we're past the stage where we'd get sick huh?
I have been on metformin for over a year and have never had a problem. Most people don't have problems with it. A few will have a little trouble in the begining.
