Hi Leona & Everyone

Thank god there is someone else who feels the same as I do & am pleased that Metfomin is working for you...I've been to my usual doctor with same complaints, lack of concentration, fatigue, very bad memory, exessive body hair & thinning hair on my head. basically he told me to eat healty and exercise. I'm not overweight but I can put weight on easily!! I've suffered with this for 15years on and off. At this point in time my symptoms are getting worse specially concentration, fatigue & memory which i'm sure you know how frustrating that is in your day to day life. I've been to another doc who did a full blood count and found LH & FSH were not level. The doc suspects PCOS & has reffered me to see a consultant but I'll have to wait 7 weeks before I can be seen. I've been doing a lot of research & it looks like insulin resistance is related to PCOS. Let's hope one day i can say "the bad old days are gone for me too"
