jennifer4444 34 Posted September 16, 2012 Hey pcoser's-- I'm scheduled for 10/23. Currently take max dose of metformin which keeps some of the symptoms at bay. Wondering if any of you were able to decrease or even stop it post op? Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VSGRachel 25 Posted September 17, 2012 My Endocrinologist took me off of metformin before surgery on 9/4. She told me we would reavaluate in 6 months and have bloodwork done. I'm having to problems as of yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ryokokitty 26 Posted September 17, 2012 I was taken off Metformin about a week after surgery. Honestly, I was doing all that I can to be off it beforehand. I cut soda and most sugar out of my diet. My A1c was at 6 before surgery. After I went home, my sugar level dropped in the morning to under 70 which my doctor told me to stop taking Metformin completely.
