Everynight, I didn't feel well, and I just wanted to lye down.
But, I was recently switched to Fortament ER (its an extended release). It smells like feet .... but it works SOOOOO WELLL! 
I now am not sick anymore and feel wonderful knowing that I'm not making excuses to skip my meds anymore.
So if she's not tolerating the Met, try Fortament ER (or Glucophage XR ... both are extended release, easier on the tummy).

I'm so glad I listened to my pals here on the boards that there is better medicine out there, and you don't have to go through life thinking you've IBS when you really don't

My wife is not signed up here but I am also a wife... so there should be a category for Significant Other of a cyster who is or is not currently signed up with SC. I chose Wife whose significant other is not signed up but that's misleading and makes me seem like i am a cyster... which I am not.

Points: 159.90 Bank: 0.00 Total Points: 159.90 | I have visited this site many times in the past 2 years since I was diagnosed with pcos, but now I registered because I am at my wits end with my husband. When we started dating I was thinner. I gained 70 pounds in 2 years. I have insulin resistance and I have tried every diet and pill under the sun. My husband keeps telling me that he can not understand how having pcos and insulin resitance could keep someone from losing weight. He says if you eat right and exercise you have to lose weight.he says that I must be cheating on my diet It has become very frustraing to diet and exercise and still see the scale go up. I am extremly depressed and on the verge of divorce. My husband has flat out told me he doesn't like the way I look and wants me to lose weight. I just need to know if anyone has any suggestions or successful weight loss tips, or any insight on how to explain pcos and insulin resistance to my husband, so he can understand that it is not easy to lose weight with this. |
