Question glucophage-can it mess u up?

Call me paranoid, but I was prescribed the glucophage and took it for a month and stopped. My paranoia is that what if down the road I develop true type II diabetes and need glucophage only to find out that my body wont respond to it anymore because of prior use of the glucophage to combat PCOS? Sort of like when you use antibiotics and after a while it wont work on you anymore. Also what about the long term affects of this drug? Growing up, I have pretty much never had to rely on meds for anything outside of the occasional childhood colds and flus. I have had Clomid and Provera in the past for infertility. I am trying to get pregnant ans was prescribed the Glucophage to reduce insulin levels and later use it in conjunction with Clomid. Anyone else worry about this? Am I being overly paranoid? I jsut dont want to mess up my body when I could have fixed the problem with diet changes.
