Dear friend , greetings from HCM. I understand your concern. You are advised metformin , you could be having type 2 diabetes mellitus . but if you don't stop taking medications even you are sick. All the symptoms you listed are due to high glucose levels. First you get fasting and post prondial glucose, HbA1c, microalbuminuria, lipid profile, and thyroid hormone levels done and later we can fix correct dose of medications. You will be alright. You please remember that lifestyle changes are key to the management of diabetes .
Thank s
