Hi Munchie,
I was just wondering if you were still using this forum now that it's all changed? How are you feeling, have you managed to up your dosage of Metformin? I moved up to 3 a day but had to drop back down to 2, the nausea was just too much to deal with at Christmas time to be honest.
Anyhow, hope you're doing ok and not too sick

Am definitely feeling more things down stairs if you know what I mean?! :roll: Cramping, the feeling that my period is about to start etc. I hasn't yet (damn it - haven't had one since MAY!)
I now have a book called a Dummy's guide to PCOS - got really good reviews on amazon. Not sure if I mentioned it. Haven't had a chance to sit and look at it yet - hopefully will have some time this afternoon. Will it have the answers I need?!
Am also really tired - hard to know if that is end of term syndrome or metaformin related. Will just have to wait and see.
You busy for Christmas?
So, did you brave the third dose today? I kind of thought to myself that as I'm not actuall ill, and the Metformin isn't keeping me "well" that I wasn't prepared to make myself ill over Christmas. However, I may well regret that when I'm back in school and starting to feel the effects again!
You did mention the book, let me know if it's any good and if it is, I'll pick one up from Amazon in the New Year. At least you can feel the start of things, let's hope you get a Christmas pressie of good old AF!
Christmas is looking a little quiet here because of the snow. We always have a Christmas Eve party but we've had to cancel it because of the weather and I am really disappointed. How about you, are you having a busy week?
I am also suffering from the end of term usual illness, a little added Christmas present of a stinking cold - thanks kids!!
I call them my baby pills - I pop one in and think of the bennie I desire so much - I find it makes it easier to get in your mouth and swallow!
This is meant in the nicest possible way - but research has shown that if you think about the symptoms too much - the symptoms appear worse that what they are - something to do with recepticals in the brain. I now pop in my baby pill and think to myself that I'm one step closer to getting our beanie. - May not work for you - but works for me so thought I would share to help you ladies as probably worth a try.
I know what you mean about trying to ignore the symptoms, I think that is why I find it easier when I am in work as it takes my mind of it a bit.
I am going to persevere with the 3 a day as of next week, and then 4 a day the week after.
Thank you!
Have been tearful today - get in hormones!!! Get doing your funky stuff!!!
Mind over matter is so important with these things, I agree!
The hormones are killing me today! I am such a mean person (or am I just excusing my behaviour with the Met?!) my poor husband cannot seem to do anythng right!
Hope you've had a lovely Christmas Eve, our party is back on which is great as the roads have cleared a little. So, just need to get all the food sorted for the 22 people arriving in about an hour.
have a fab Christmas day and hope you're feeling ok
Inlaws left today so I have moved onto three tablets. The extra one was at lunch time - same old response to a tablet at a new time of day! Really hoping that this won't last too long. We're with my family most of this week - don't mind dealing with the side effects with them around.
Oven beeping - must dash!!!
