JoAnne, I was on metformin for 6 months and it made me very sick. I had severe diarrhea and it never stopped. I am trying a different approach. I'm on a low carb diet. I figured if the medication is supposed to lower your insulin then so can a low carb diet. I had a few headaches but not all the time. Hope this helps
