Yea, Sometimes think I"ve got information coming out of my ears. I don't have too many symptoms so its easy to let things go.

My problem is not being unable to sleep, but sleeping too much If I have to go on to take Metformin I may need to change my walking routine to a circular one, to take in the public rest-room..

Don;'t want the attendant to be calling up police thinking he's got a perv visiting. Telling the police all about Metformin;s side effects would be a hard sell!

LOL.. yes, I dont think the police would be a good sell for all the side effects of Metformin. I never had that side effect the whole time i was on it, but I know there are people that do. I dont sleep well either, but didnt think it had anything to do with diabetes. I thought it was just me. I am constantly in the bathroom too, but it is because I take diuretics.... not metformin
