diabetes, type 2
"I was on Avandamet for years but the weakness, tiredness, and especially the diarrhea came to be too much to bear.  If I wanted to go someplace I had to stop medicating.  I had to take one pill twice a day which resulted in 3 bouts of diarrhea per pill.  My blood sugars were well within range and I have found nothing since to bring them down to that level but I refuse to be bound by side effects any longer."
