Re: newby, on metformin, struggling alittle

CJ, I tried to take metformin too. It made me REALLY tired too, and quite depressed feeling. I was going to the gym to exercise before I started taking it, but I quit for a while when I was taking it because I didn't have the energy to get off the couch. I quit taking it, and I don't know what I'm going to do. I've had pcos for a long time, but I can't work (teaching first grade) and take care of my own children feeling like that.

I know how you feel. I think I'm going to ask my doctor to send me to an endocrinologist.
