Re: RE Update and question
Glad to hear your appointment went well.
Met can definately do a number on your tummy. I started at 1500mgs last year and it was too much for my body to handle, I was beyond miserable. So, they had me start slowly and then gradually bring me back to 1500mgs.
Everyone is different, but for me, not only was I so nauseous, but if I didn't watch what I ate, I would end up in the bathroom (sorry for TMI!) for a good hour! Even now, every now and then, the met will remind me to watch what I eat. Carbs and sugar were my triggers to the upset stomach.
After about a month I was feeling much better!
g/l!

Ugh, met side effects can be bad. I don't know what dose he gave you but if he gave you 1500mg, start slow. Do 50 for a week, then 100 for a week and then go to 150. In the beginning it was better for me to take one pill with each meal, but now I take them all with dinner.
I have a really hard time because I also have IBS. I admit I really didn't change my diet at all. Lately though, I have been trying to watch carbs and sugar and it seems to be making things better, although I still have an "episode" about once a week.
I was never nauseous from it though.

If I am reading his writing correctly, it says 500mg 3x a day.
I hope it works!!!
Yep thats 1500/mg a day. Start slowly and work your way up to the 1500. It will be easier that way!
Good luck! Many women with PCOS ovulate on met alone!
