I was diagnosed with Type II diabetes 3 weeks ago and am having serious issues with the medications.
Was given Metformin to try which sent me running tot he bathroom with severe diarrhea within an hour of taking it. Then was switched to Glumetza, a time release form of Metformin and it did the same thing and made me feel awful, so I stopped it....Endocrinologist I was sent to switched me to Tradjenta, but that's sending me to the bathroom too along with stomach pains.
Anyone taking anything that is a lot less harsh...I can't continue to take these medications as I work in retail, work 3-4 nights a week, which means I am eating dinner at 10 p.m. every night so I can take medication in case I have a bout with diarrhea. I can't eat earlier at work or else I'm in the bathroom for 30 minutes which I can't do at work.
PLEASE HELP ME!!!!
