should I go back to the doctors or should I suffer?!

back in November when I first joined HealthUnlocked I was diagnosed with diabetes.

now that I have seen the consultant I'm still confused as to what type I have got and have been told to continue what I'm doing even though I explained how the tablets side affects are affecting me. I now have to wait for about 3 months to see if they finally know what type I have got.

However I've been on 500mg Metformin over a month now, the side affects really affect me, constant diarrhoea, nausea, headaches and dizziness. I'm supposed to be increasing the dosage every two weeks but I can only take 2 at the most which reduces my appetite I have lost a bit of weight as well.
