-- I have also been diagnosed with the same disorder. I too have gained significant weight in the last few years and I exercise and watch what I eat. I have also noticed, however, that if I miss a meal or eat it later than usual, I have a tendancy to get tremendous headaches and may hands begin to shake. My doctor has prescribed Allese-28 and this does regulate my menstrual cycle, but I am not sure how else this is helping me. Am an curious to know if there is any other treatment available for this disorder that might also help with the weight gain.
