It will hurt if it means you aren't going to take an insulin sensitizer. Metformin is a drug that can be quite difficult to adjust to. I would not advise someone to give up on it after only four days or a week. Sometimes it takes a bit more, and these side effects should subside once Catherine's body has adjusted.
It's true that some people can't tolerate it, but some difficulty adjusting to metformin is justified by the efficacy of the medication. My girlfriend had a week of feeling nauseated, some diarrhea, and no appetite; but she's very glad she stuck with it because the benefits have been tremendous.
