Does anyone know if there is an alternative to Metformin. I really can't be doing with this constant diarrhea. Mostly just liquid stools. It's embarrassing especially at work with no prior warning.

sorry about that, has anything else been suggested for you. if not badger your doctor or nurse could be necessary to try different meds until one found that suits you.
