Exclamation Please HELP!

I just started Met a little over a week ago. Since then, I have not been able to eat much, layed around, and have horrible diareah! Needless to say I am hitting borderline dehydrated. I couldn't even get down a litre of water today. (smart water at least) I eat and then after a bit its all gone! I have been close to incohereant all day! Tonight Im gettin a bit scared. I am having horrible stomach cramping and couldn't even stand up straight! My muscles are weak and even shakey! I have just had 16oz of Gatorade and feel a bit better but now Im so sick to my tummy I am having second thoughts about drinking it. Sugar is not my friend lately!!!

I in a way made a goal of one month. If this will go away then I will stay on it....but it now seems my health is taking a beating and I am not sure its worth it. I know dehydration is a serious thing...but can I ride this out??? Or have I hit my tolerance???

FYI...I don't have an Endo or GYN at the moment. I am so blessed to at least have CMS and just happen to have met a doc 3 weeks ago that does trials on women with PCOS!! Talk about Divine intervention!! He was the one who perscribed the Met. I am waiting on CMS to approve Spirolactone so I am taking my regular diazide for now. Could that be part of the problem??

I would appreciate any info. I am way too tired and worn out to read through all these posts and articles on this! Sorry


Thanks my cysters....woo hoo..my first starting thread! LOL
