I haven't bought any SN yet but just in case, there is a lingering question with the current medication I've been taking. I tried searching for metformin on the forum before but all I found was someone asking whether they can overdose on it as a way to CTB (which I thought was a silly idea even before I saw the exact reasons why it's a silly idea). For those who don't know, Metformin is a diabetes medication meant to lower blood sugar. Currently I take 2000 milligrams a day (That's two 500 mg pills each during lunch and dinner) though sometimes I skip for a meal or a day because I either forgot or just don't like the way it makes my stomach feel. It basically replaces my diabetes with constant diarrhea.. That and the fact that metformin can apparently cause cancer is a good reason to quit it especially before the date I actually want to CTB.
Like my main question says though, how will this medication interact with SN? Will it make it more difficult for SN to accomplish its purpose or easier? Should I just stop taking it for a few days/weeks beforehand or is it ok to keep taking it up til whenever I decide to CTB (which is still probably not going to be for a few years). Apologies if this question actually has been answered before and I'm just bad at searching.
