Diabetes, Type 2
"I took acarbose for 2 months. It did nothing to lower my blood sugars.  I had diarrhea severly and bad gas all the time.  I  had to stop going out in public and a restaurant would of been rude.  My husband moved out of our bedroom and my family complained around me.  Stomach pain was very strong and felt weird.    Since I have been off of it for 1 month my colon seem painfull and having trouble getting back to regularity."
