Re: PCOS-MEDICATION digest 550From: anonymous@obgyn.netSat, 25 Aug 2001 23:52:00 EDT
HEY SAMANTHA, I AM 22 YEARS OLD. I FOUND OUT AT MY GYNOCOLOGIST I HAD POLYCYSTIC OVARIAN CYSTS ON MY OVARIES WHEN I WAS 16 YEARS OLD. I FOUND OUT FROM AND ENDOCRIDOLOGIST WHEN I WAS 20 THAT I HAD THE PCO SYNDROME WITH INSULIN RESISTANCE. I HAVE BEEN ON GLUCOPHAGE FOR ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF AND CAN NOT REALLY TAKE MORE THAN 1000MG. IT MAKES ME HAVE TOO FREQUENT BOWL MOVEMENTS AND I GET NAUSEATED AFTER TAKING 1500MG FOR 2 MONTHS. SO I HAVE TO BE ON WHAT I CAN TOLERATE. I TRIED ADVANDIA AND IT MADE ME SICK AS A DOG. SO I STUCK TO GLUCOPHAGE. I HAVE BEEN ON YASMIN 28 FOR ABOUT 1 1/2 MONTHS. I AM ALSO ON .25MG OF XANAX 4 TIMES A DAY FOR PANIC ATTACKS AND ANXIETY. I HAVE BEEN ON 15MG OF MERIDIA TILL ABOUT A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO, BECAUSE I CAN'T AFFORD IT ANYMORE. SO I AM GOING TO HAVE TO GET ON A ANTI-DEPRESSANT THAT IS AFFORDABLE. MERIDIA DID NOT HELP ME LOSE WEIGHT. T CUT MY APPETITE A LITTLE IN THE BEGINNING. I WAS ON IT FOR TWO MONTHS AND I THINK I GAINED WEIGHT. I DON'T REALLY EAT BAD OR OVEREAT! I AM TOO EXUSTED AND TIRED ALL THE TIME TO EXERCISE. I HAVE BEEN GETTING SERIOUS HOT FLASHES AND FEEL FAINT A LOT. I WENT TO MY REG. GYNO AND HE TOOK A HEALTH PANAL AND A GLUCOSE PANAL (BLOOD TESTS). HE SAID HE DOEN'T KNOW WHAT TO TELL ME IF THEY COME OUT NORMAL! I NEED HELP! WHAT DO I DO? WHATS WRONG???? THANKS , MICHELLE EMAIL-SHELL211979@AOL.COM
