I have been on 1000mg for about19 days. I still get the runs a little but other than that I have been good. No real issues. I did have some cramping anf a whitish discharge , sorry for the tmi, and the other day I had a lot of pressure on my cervix. And I am lte but only two days and I have been late before so I am trying really hard not to look into it too much!

i'm not really sure about the dosage, i just know it was a zinc supplement and that it was the only supplement being taken at the time. it was a pretty obvious thing that that's what helped them.

Ive had a lot of trapped wind laterly, my belly hurts with the pressure =( Hopefully goes away soon, Checked the scales, and still only lost those 3 pounds, nothing more, but should be happy, at least not gaining =) things dont happen over night ... gonna try and go to gym this week, but i feel like a circus freak ... cos there all skinny women, and im massive puts me off going ...

Hi Ladies! I am doing well on Met... AF is three days late but I am trying not to get excited! I havent been regular in months so I am trying to keep myself from thinking it is a possibility but I would be lying if I said I wasnt hoping!

cachcoco, im praying for you!!! i know what you mean by getting excited but trying to convince urself otherwise...but keep holding on to the positive attitude either way!

Thanks Candy! AF still is a no show so today I will go buy a test and do it in the A.M. I dont plan to tellDH that I am doing it though, I dont think I could take the disappointment when its negative. I think I just need to see the negatve so I can stop thinking it is possible. I know that sounds lame but I have been down this road too many times. My Dh tries to be supportive but always manages to say something he regrets because he didnt mean it to come out that way and I end up in a ball sobbing on his lap! Dont want to do that again! He just hates it when I get my hopes up.

Will keep my fingers crossed for you and all of us. PCOS is all hard for us all. We all need to help one another. I'm taking 2 tablets a day and i feel like crap, mood swings all over the place, and having stomach troubles, but i'm getting there, could do with chattin to someone with the same probs, sometimes im ok with it, others im not.

When i do pregnant tests, at first im like are we ready, then i kinda get excited, then when its negative i am so disappointed. Funny that isnt it.

Thanks for all the support! It wasw a bfn this morning....sucks!

cachcoco,dont worry its a process most of us if not all have gone through. when i miss my AF for a day or two i always have tests handy but i test secretly coz i dont wanna make my DH excited only to be disappointed. it is truely a process but we have to be patient and pray. i know its disappointing, once i even broke down and cried!!! dont give up ladies!

Thanks Candy! I am going to go work out to feel better!

cachcoco · 04-01-2008, 04:21 PM

I have a question.... I had a bfn this morning and I have been kinda crampy since yesterday. No actual cramping just discomfort. I have heartburn.. I am beyond moody. I started met on march11th. I remember when I was on clomid it made my progesterone go up which gave me pregnancy symptoms even though I wasnt. Does met do the same thing? I am on cd33. I had spotting half way through my cycle but it was very little. any input would be great.

Candy UK · 04-02-2008, 10:04 AM

im quite new on met only about four wks, but i did have preg symptoms toward my AF days and when i missed my period for one day, which i always regular, i thought i might be preg but i wasnt. hope that helps. are you feeling any better? i have a question to ask...when someone is OV..is it the whole day that they OV or specific times?

Candy UK · 04-02-2008, 10:06 AM

im supposed to be Ov in a couple of days but i dont feel anything yet..what am i supposed to be feeling or seeing coz i may be missing it..a little new to this ttc thing

Candy UK · 04-02-2008, 10:31 AM

stay strong

cachcoco · 04-02-2008, 11:07 AM

Candy thanks for the input. I am still feeling the same but the discomfort seems to be a little better this morning.
As for your question not everyone can feel O. But I know that you are supposed to get egg white Cm right before or after. Are you temping? i dont so I cant help there but I know a lot of women do and that tells them when they are Oing!
