Q: What are the side affects of Metformin HCL 500mg

I am taking for the first time this drug. The doctor said I am now a Type 1 diabetic. I have been on this for 2 weeks.  I am also taking Simvastatin 20mg and he has me on Azor 10mg/40mg.

I have never had to take any medication in my life now all of this and I feel alwful. I am 73 years old. I just want to quit all of it.

Thank you,

A.J.
