Sue: CONGRATULATIONS!!! I am so happy for you and your husband. I corresponded briefly with you when I first went on Actos about a year ago. I am not trying to conceive, but just trying to keep my PCOS under control. I am so glad that the Actos worked for you. You are a big encouragement to others out there. Thank you for sharing your wonderful news with everyone here at this forum. God bless, Kathy
