lolarose13 147 Posted December 6, 2013 Hello everybody! I just came back from my 6 months check up after the lapband and I'm so happy with my lab results. Everything went down to normal! No more high cholesterol or triglycerides problems but my testosterone was high so they put me in medication again for my PCOS. Beside a birth control, they doctor decided to put me into Metformine again, to improve my insulin levels and to see if I can keep loosing weight (I've been stuck for a while) but since I can not swallow that huge Metformine pill anymore, now I will be in liquid Metformine called Riomet, anyone else taking this? I'm excited because I hate the bigs pills before and I think liquid Metformine sounds much easier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lolarose13 147 Posted December 6, 2013 I always had problems taking big pills, even before the lapband. I was in 1000 milligrams a day, and even with 500ml a day, I just can handle the trauma of swallowing them haha. I just don't want to take a risk to get stuck with a huge pill! (Also, My doctor recommended this, so coming from him, I will give it a try). I think is great to have an option of liquid metformin. I picking up my prescription today in the afternoon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
