are you also on a statin like Lipator ?? that could have some effect -- also ask your Dr about B12 -- mine was very low on Metformin -- so I now take a supplement each morning.

I have an appointment next week with my Doctor and will ask. Good news today though. My A1C is 5.6 and all my numbers look really good. I was a little high on triglycerides (200) but not overall terrible! Yay!

Yes B-12 is a must with Metformin...but doubt that's your problem. Sounds like an arthritis, autoimmune or nerve problem to me.

Are you on statins with your Metformin? My doctor was giving me the lowdown on statins & these included flu like aches & muscular pains. I would have thus checked with your doctor anyway to put your mind at ease & see if there is a way to lessen the pain you feel

Good luck on your weight loss. I haven't had any success at all in that arena. I've been taking Victoza and even that has not helped. I just need to lose 25 more lbs and nothing works. I'm very discouraged about this, and upset. My Dr keeps telling me it will come but I don't really believe it anymore.
