Sweetheart how long have you been on the increased dose? If you're struggling to eat then maybe you need to go back to them and tell them so....
Do a little of something that makes you happy every day!
For about two weeks or a little more. I'll see then.
Why can't you eat meat on the increased dose? Are you having gastric issues on them?

I can't help re the meat eating as I'm vegan....

Immediate release metformin can cause some gastric issues, changing to the prolonged release can help that. Definitely something to discuss with your doctor

Yes.
No, I cannot eat it because nearly all meat products make me experience nausea.
Definitely discuss it with your doctor, it could be that changing to the prolonged release would help you.

I don't know much about metformin but if there is a slow release version that may be the way to go, discuss it with your doctor.

If it's any help, my hubby is on a large dose of Metformin - in fact they encourage almost as much as you can take at the surgery! - and he had bad diarrhoea because of the dosage. He's going for the slow release Metformin, which won't be so violent with his stomach.
