Jessie, its iZ again. I found out somewhere the other day that the high
levels of LH that your body sustains when ovulation is delayed/doesn't
happen can cause symptoms like pregnancy - ie dizziness and nausea. This
is the only explanation I've had so far - my gynea doesn't seem to even
think its related to the PCOS, or at least that it could be caused by
something else, but it always happens to me when my cycle is extended,
so I'm SURE there is a link. Its the tiredness thing I hate the most -
I can forget what I'm saying mid-sentence, my concentration is that low!
Tends to make me paranoid that everyone things I'm a complete moron, as
that is how I feel. My gynea just said to keep taking the tablets (Met
1500mg per day) and that was that. Hope you're feeling better soon . .
. luv iZ
