I'm on Metformin 1000 mg each day and at first it was scary and a nightmare. I stayed in bed the 2nd day on it and felt really dizzy and sick. But, after the initial week I was fine. I have more energy the nauseousness has gone away. Have her take it with food because that helped me deal with the nauseousness. Also, eat lots and lots of veggies because that really helps. Whenever I get pasta (which is loaded with carbs) I get whole grain, whole grain bread. My biggest weakness right now is getting off the mountain dew lol! Just keep working with her and supporting her. It's really awesome tha your taking the steps to help her! It encourages her but she just wont say it. SHe probally feels like she's a disappointment to you because that's what I feel like at times with my husband. It will get easier. Just keep up the good work!! |
