Angry Metformin I have been on for 2yrs....and its upsetting my stomach

I feel like I can't eat anything with it wanting to go right thru me... Im going to the dr. today is there something else I can take? Im starting school tomorrow and I will be there 8 hrs a day so I really would like something else, because I don't want to have this problem at school... so is there something that would be a better choice for me?

You could ask about Metformin ER/XR (extended release). It may or may not help with the side effects, but at least you could manage it so the side effects only occurred at home.

Have you tried keeping a food diary to see what triggers the side effects? It really worked for me, however my diet ended up being too restrictive so I came off Met. (Definately not recommending that to you though, that was my own personal decision)
