I just started Metformin on Friday, and feel the same way about the constipation thing. I am normally very regular, but find that it is harder to have a bowel movement if it even happens at all. I haven't had any of this explosive diarrhea I hear about....which I suppose is good.
I'm on Metformin with Spironolactone.... so I don't know if that matters. My stomach does feel weird though...I'm not hungry at all.
I'm counting on Metformin to make a difference in my weight loss....I eat super healthy, and I'm allergic to wheat...so that knocks out a lot of the high GI items. Any other diet/food tips I should know to go along with the Metformin (I know all about eating healthy, just didn't know if there is anything else I should know that would make a difference with the Met) Thanks! |
