| Sandmcd, with the metformin, many have gastric "issues." For me, these alleviated quickly, though I always had a little difficulty if I ate something that was "greasy." If your nausea doesn't abate soon, call your doctor and see if you can be switched to the "extended release" metformin, as many tolerate it better as it releases more slowly throughout the day than does regular metformin. Also, make sure you don't take it on an empty stomach.
