More Metformin Madness

I think the devil himself created Metformin. I feel like crap! I had forgotten...remind me to never do this again. (no really please remind me) I know some of you do not know this wonderful drug used for most people that have PCOS. Consider yourself Lucky!! Because the side effects Suck! with a capital SUCK!!!!  They say it is suppose to help you ovulate and lessen your chances of miscarriage which is generally high for the lucky ones that have PCOS. I am willing to go through hell, if that is what it takes but so far Metformin has not cooperated with me. It has not showed me all it can do.  I have yet to see the wonderful results (aka a live baby) but I will try. I will hope and everytime I have a visit with my new BFF I will remember why I am doing this (not to mention I don't want to end up diabetic or any of the other health risks associated with PCOS). I just feel chained to my house, my stomach is upset, I feel like someone with a steam roller has rolled over and backed up and did it again.  So thats it my pity party for today. Sorry if I am harping on this thing but did I mention it SUCKS???

Met"evil"formin

Well, I started back on Metformin again.  I, being the dummy I am, decided after my miscarriage in July that I was going to take a break from taking it. I figured it didn't help me with that pregnancy so I was mad and I stopped.  I am regretting that decision now!  I know I shouldn't have stopped. I know it's not just so I can get pregnant, it is also for insulin resistence but I was bitter so I thought I would show it...I just wouldn't take it...it didn't do anything for me...I wouldn't do anything for it. I know logical thinking, right? But in my defense I was not in a good place.

When I stopped I had finally gotten used to the medication. I didn't have to run to the bathroom if I had a fricken piece of bread. I could enjoy food again. What the hell was I thinking?...I wasn't! Now I am back to square one...Let me introduce you to my new (actually old and familiar) best friend...
