Default Avandia & Fluid Retention

Those of you on Avandia - do you have fluid retention, which can be a side effect of it? My RE took me off of 8 mg. of Avandia due to fluid retention and put me on Glucophage. I was cycling and ovulating on the Avandia - even got pg. in March (but m/c unfortunately) - but I'm not doing a darn thing on the Glucophage. It has reduced my cravings for sweets and carbs but that's about it - and it's killed my libido. I'm ready to demand that he put me back on the Avandia, fluid retention and all. I'm 41.4 years old and I don't have time to dilly dally around waiting to see if the Glucophage is ever going to work.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Michele

My DR considered it for me but was worried because the main effect is weight gain. You have to exersise min 3-4 days a week to be on it.

Drink your water!!
