Metformin is EVIL!!!
I frekkin hate this stuff. I have been NON STOP naseous and have only been taking two a day. I supposed to be taking THREE!
Ugh... I absolutely HATE the way it makes me feel!!!!
In better news, I got AF and am starting BCPs tonight. We also had our meeting with the social worker tonight and I scheduled my water sono for next monday the 14th.
Back to the dr for blood saturday and then I take antibiotics (and dh too) before the water sono.

Re: Metformin is EVIL!!!
 Yes, it can be...but the good news is, it WILL get better! I was MISERABLE, but it got better after 2 or 3 weeks. I started on 3 per day, and there was no way I could do it. My doctor allowed me one per day for 5 days, then 2 a day for 5 days, then finally 3 per day.

Re: Metformin is EVIL!!!
I'm so sorry, Jen. Are you taking them together or at seperate times? I find taking them together is the WORST for me. Your body will get used to it.

Re: Metformin is EVIL!!!
I am beyond surprised that it hasn't given me any trouble, because I normally have a pretty weak stomach. Other than one morning (on 5 hours sleep), it hasn't given me any trouble.
Stick with it--keep your eye on the prize!!!

Re: Metformin is EVIL!!!
Jen, I just wanted to add, I feel your pain.
I was off of it for 2 weeks and went back on last week, I just went back up to three yesterday and I am suffering miserably from it. I probably went back up to three too soon. But I am frustated since nothing happened last cycle, and it may just be a coincidence, but I was off the met during last cycle.

Re: Metformin is EVIL!!!
Jen, try taking it at different times of the day. I was taking mine in the morning and hated it. Then I started taking them at night, before bed and it was much better! But I've heard some girls take it at night and hate it, but do well in the morning. Play around with it. Good luck!!!!!!!!!

I too started taking my pills at night and have had less severe attacks....still the occasional one, but nothing like before.
