Just added a new disease to my effing chart... Mood
Monday, June 29, 2009 | An Anxious story

The Dr has started me on a new medication called Metformin. He thinks I have polycystic ovarian syndrome. Plus my blood sugar was a bit high when it was tested last month.

 

I am scared to take the new medication but I know I need to try to trust my dr. It is hard for me to trust drs after being misdiagnosed twice.

 

I am anxious about my health declining. I sometimes feel like I am slowly dying.

    Hey Mia..I am in the same boat. Metaformin is not too bad.....but if you have problems with it,...you can also switch to fortamet ( still glucopage which is what metformin and fortamet are). Its time released and has less stomach effects. Hang in there Lady....big hugs
