I'm glad you've had a good experience and hope it works for me too.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but its not just eating carbs that cause me the diarrhea. I have had diarrhea for about 3 years now because of metformin. About two to 3 times a week I cant really leave the house its so bad.
I really hope this works out for you. As for me I would practically saw off a leg to get my Dr to take me off metformin. This appointment I am going to push the issue and I don't care if my Dr. likes it or not. I am fed up with these diabetes pills especially since the other one put me in the hospital. I want to go on insulin and might just refuse to take anymore diabetes pills until someone decides to listen to me and put me on it.
