about being a patient...From: Thora (anonymous@obgyn.net)Mon, 20 Aug 2001 05:33:23 -0500 (CDT)
Hello everyone. I just started on Metformin and feel terrible. I was diagnosed 6 months ago and have been taking Dianemite (birth control pill) since then. I've been reading a lot about PCOS and told my doctor that my insulin needed to be checked and after that result he put me on metformin. The story of us all but do you also have a story of telling your doctors about the facts of our syndrome?! Strange, you pay somebody for having studied hormones and it all and then you have to know it twice as well yourself to get the correct medicine etc! And that's just AFTER you have visited million doctors that don't know a thing even though you have all of the symtoms.... When I bought Metformin I discovered it was free. That reminded me of the fact that I will probably need this medicine for the rest of my life. :( I am very surprised how different our doses are. I take 500 mg a day (maybe because I just started?) and some of you take 2000... my final question is: do you trust your doctors?
