Other plans
Having read most of the comments here, I'm amazed anyone can stick to a diet of shakes! There are alternatives also backed up by proper research. The Blood Sugar Diet proposed by Dr Michael Mosely also sticks to 800 Calories but ALL proper food. Recipes are varied (and you can invent your own) and

I have pcos and so I've been on metformin 500mg (2times a day) and Clomid as well (I've tried 5pmg and 100 mg but still hasn't worked). I had my ovarian drilling done just over

It's been a while but wanted to say hi again x
Hello everyone, I hope you have all had a good Friday, the weekend is finally here! Some of you may remember me from back at the start of the year when I had my failed 1st icsi attempt, and unfortunately lost out on my free frozen transfer as we had none to freeze. So I took a break away as I needed

Metformin - how long should it take to work?
I have been prescribed 750mg morning and night To treat insulin resistance and the extreme hypoglycaemia and fatigue suffering and weight gain I've not noticed any change in symptoms a week in, how quickly should I notice changes?

28 woman with a hubby who has severe low count. ICSI referral last week and feeling in total shock.
My hubby is 31 and had only 20,000 sperm in his analysis results last week. I have mild PCOS however after months on 1500mg of Metformin I ovulate myself and my tubes are clear. We were told we had 0.5% chance of natural conception and having read the live birth success rate of ICSI it's only around

Preds and diabetes 2.
Had appt with diabetes nurse today. Good news bp ok but glucose levels 93 (11) After flare up 2 months ago I've reduced from 20mcg to 17mcg pred. Have agreed to see Endocrinologist but there's a long wait for appt. Tomorrow I'll start reducing carbs and hopefully this will help - don't want to

Protein in Urine.
I am diabetic for 35 years. my Bliod sugar satisfactorily maintained. Except for few fluctuations. Medication is Glimepride 1 mg in the morning. If the reading is unfavorable Metformin 500 mg added before bed. Otherwise, FBs below 115 And PP 140-180. Now the latest test shows protein +30 in urine

Getting pregnant with Metformin?
Hello ladies, this is my first post here. I was diagnosed with PCOS about 4 years ago and was around the time me and my husband starting TTC- we'd just got married and I'd had a laporoscopy to get rid of some endometriosis legions on my bowel and uterus. Always had irregular periods and was put on metformin

Parkinson's disease
I am new here & was diagnosed with PD 2 years ago after experiencing balance problems; I fell down our steps twice & received 2 mild concussions. My neurologist prescribed several meds (Sinemet, etc.) but I couldn't take them due to severe nausea and hallucinations. I now use 2 mg Neupro transdermal
