hi..you have all been very informative thank you! my problem is...my doctor...the only thing he told me when i asked if i should be changing my diet in any way is that i had to eat low fat..my cholesterol was up a bit. he never said anything about eating less sugar or low carbs or anything other than low fat. i am 140 lbs and 5'4". the metformin made me very nauseated in the beginning but now i am fine. i only had one bad experience with it, i ate choc cake and onion rings then took my pill at suppertime...i thought i would die. i was bloated like a 9 month preg woman and in extreme pain, then the dreaded diarrhea kicked in. now i take one pill in the morning and 2 pills at night but i dont take it with supper i switched to before bedtime after the bad experience. my body does crave sweets a lot and i try to resist. i started taking met on may 12 so i suppose it is too soon for a miracle but last cycle did lessen down to day 31 and i felt ovary action before normal ovulation time. again this cycle(day 9 right now), i am feeling an odd twinge in my right side so not sure if that is a sign of impending ovulation or cysts again, time will tell i guess. i am starting to ramble so that is enough for now. thank you again
