I have a question for anyone who would know. I was diagnosed with Type II a little over three years ago. I had been on Glipizide 10mg for most of that time. Now I have a new doctor who did an A1C test and said my numbers were high, along with my blood pressure and cholestrol..yeah me! Anyway, she changed my med from the Glipizide 10mg.X 2 to Metformin 1000mg. X 2. I am finding that I am ok at first in the morning when I take one half a pill(which dr. told me to do so my body will get used to it) so that is 500mg. by around 10am I am feeling lightheaded. After lunch I feel okay just basically tired which is normal for me. I wonder if just taking the 500mg in the am and the other half at night will be enough instead of the 1000mg X2 she wants me to take. Oh and another thing, I have an ileostomy so my insides are very sensitive to meds in general.
