I was put on metformin about 6 wks ago. 2 days after I started taking it (2x's per day) I thought I had come down with the flu. I had nausea, diaherra, headaches, extreme fatigue, dizziness and some muscle pain. After feeling like this for 3 weeks I called the doctor. Apparently I was having severe side effects and he took me off it immediately. It took about a wk to start feeling better.
