I started taking glucophage on 4-1-03, 500 mg once a day for 2 weeks. Then increased to twice a day. I was sick for a week until my new doctor placed me on Glucophage XR. It releases into the body slowly. he started me on 1000 mg in the morning for 3 weeks, then 1500mg for 3 weeks and then 2000 mg. I'm still on the low dose and I feel great...no sickness. Hope it continues.
So far, I haven't had a period since 1-30-03. Nothing seems to be helping that yet.
I am new to the message board. Look forward to hearing from you.
