diabetes, type 2
"med helped control blood sugars a little but with awful side effects.  Was taking 100mg never increased to the reco300mg couldn't do it as I felt so aweful on the 100mg.  Side effects were extreme tiredness and thirst, nauseous, increase in HDL and triglycerides, after a few months started loosing my hair probably lost 50% volume and getting terrible leg cramps in calves at night would wake me up several times each and every night, severe stabbing pains mid/lower back and the brain fog was terrible.  Quit drug!!  Spoke to pharmacist he had multiple people coming in saying "get me off this drug it's killing me"- which is how I felt!  Drug company paid for the drug even though my insurance would have paid for it-pharmacist thought this was odd."
