Hi Sonia
I am in the UK also. Do you have private cover? I have a superb GP who
is perscribing Met after i saw a specialist who reluctantly agreed that
it may help me. I am based near Woking. Please feel free to conatct me
direct on melaniepoxon@slough.gov.uk and i can give you some doctors
names to try. Good luck, remember knoledge is power and his ignorance
is his problem. Be forcefull and take informatiohn with you. The
specialist the i saw only agreed that met would help because i took PCOS
the hidden epademic with me and printouts form this forum!
Good luck and take care
