hi everyone, I am seeing my endo. next week for checkup. Although it's not proven by blood test (yet) I feel like my androgens are rising again (more acne, scalp more oily, revved up libido, etc.) and want to give Glucophage yet another try. I still have some in the cupboard from before starting Byetta, which was middle February.

My question is: Has anyone taken extended-release Glucophage with Byetta? Due to Byetta slowing down stomach emptying, I wondered if it would be bad to take the XR Gluco...would it somehow release the med in the wrong place of the digestive tract? I only ask because I quit Gluco. in the past over the unpredictible diarrhea that I would get (even with XR). I'd really like to be able to rein in the androgens, if they are indeed up. Thanks for help.
