is it possible to get drunk wilst takin metformin? or wil it make me realy sick?

Well, a couple of weekends ago I went to a wedding and they had a margarita machine! It was impossible to stay away from it. I drank slowly to make sure my stomach wouldn't flip out and I did okay. I had quite a few and we went to a bar afterwards and I had a few shiners. I did not even get a buzz and I felt fine the next day. It was weird. Kind of annoying, actually... LOL. Everyone is different I've read.

so wud be best to just sip slowly at the start and see wat happens? cz i no wen i was only on anti depressants sipin a alco pop just made me feel sick and bloated and havent bothered with booze since

That's what I did, I drank very slowly. Plus, I made sure I snacked on something... I had beef jerky in my bag... since I read that was a good idea.

Thing is, I really don't want to drink anymore. I love beer too. I think the thought in the back of my mind that I may puke bugs me

iv herd of a beef jerky but what exactly are they? we dont get them in uk

It is like a dried beef snack... it has a good mount of protein. Alot of low carbers use it as a snack. I read on a metformin FAQ not to go long periods w/o food if you're drinking...

i think that is the case weather ur on metformin or not lol

i wana try a beef jerky, my aunt lives in maryland mite ask her to send sum lol

wel i tried it any way and i had cider and i didnt feel ill at all but i didnt get drunk neither wen i drunk more then enough s

Yeah, I found that to be the case myself. Granted, I just had plain low carb beer at a party on the fourth and I found myself to be quite cheery!

the past two weeeks iv got drunk and been fine, but only prob is iv now put on half a stone, is this coz of the drink?

What does that mean..."half a stone?" TIA!

wel theres 14pounds in a stone so half that is 7 so iv put on 7 pounds
