Overmedicated/undermedicated?!
Hi, sorry for the long waffley post- I will try to keep it succinct. I was started on 50mg thyroxine last October. My t4 was within range but right down the bottom, and was symptomatic. In December it was increased to 75mg after fasting bloods (it was around 17, ref range 12-22). Last week went to see

Hi! New to this Community
Hi Everyone! I have just joined this Community and am also in the Liver Community. I have had Type 2 Diaberes for at least 20 years - haven’t anything more than a feeling as to when first diagnosed. As usual, I suppose ?, it was controlled by diet moving on to Metformin. When I had my liver transplant

Possible Metformin side effects
I have PMR and been on Prednisolone for almost 5 years, currently reducing to 2mg. I was diagnosed with Tyoe 2 Diabetes and started in Metformin about 3 months ago. I have been feeling unwell lately, as well as dizzy and unsteady. Now I have abdominal pain, bloating, wind and a nasty episode of diarrhoea

T3 and insulin resistance?
I have been diagnosed with insulin resistance (fasting blood glucose and insulin levels in range but close to upper normal limit). Symptoms are difficulty losing weight (I'm overweight), cravings and increased appetite. My doctor suggested Metformin, but I preferred to try a supplement instead and opted

2 weeks post loading doses update
Hi all, I wanted to write an update. There are a lot of horror stories online but I wanted to share some positives. Something to note is that although I am slightly anemic, my B12 deficiency was caused by long term metformin use. My symptoms were intense and mostly neurological, wide spread numbness

Do I have a fungal infection?
For about a month on and off my two big toes have been extremely itchy. If I keep scratching long enough I get this two dots that start to bleed. I also have developed a red/dry skin patch on my leg. I am type 2 diabetic and take metformin for it.

Late period is it Metformin? Should I stop?
Hello I normally have regular periods every 26 days and i started taking metformin exactly 7th December 2018 ( a month ago). I took my first pill on cycle 2 of my period. I had a scan last week to confirm I have PCOS on my left ovary and i had a small fibroid bit it's so small not to worry about it.

Confused.
Hi guys I had the implant a few years back then I moved onto the pill and got pregnant with my son. After I had him I went back on the implant but was then given metformin to see if it could help me loose weight I've now been off it over a month but I'm getting irregular periods. When it starts I bleed

Advice on a correct dose of vitamin B12
Before I was taking 1000 mcg of B12 to maintain my levels of around 800. In September I started taking Metformin and I upped my dose to 2000 mcg knowing it lowers B12. Just had my levels checked and currently it is: Serum vitamin B12 level 532 ng/L [160 - 800] Any suggestions on what dosage should I

Chocolate
I am concerned about how much chocolate is eaten by my friend who has had diabetes 2 for several years. He takes Metformin 3 times a day and as his checks are alright, he thinks it is okay to indulge. Is he right in this assumption?
