58, 5’2” 230lbs. I am tired often sad about how I got here. PCOS and resistance has been rough.

Please those you have done well, please share your stories and your side effects too, but I really want positive feedback if possible. I feel like I’m psyching myself to not take it and I really need to take my health. It’s not good between the PCOS, insulin assistance, fibromyalgia, nerve pain in my feet and lower leg, as well as other health issues. I have no gallbladder so of course I’m concerned about that. I suffer from bile acid diarrhea because I don’t have the gallbladder but sometimes it will make me constipated in between. Again I start Wegovy tomorrow morning. I’ll go to the pharmacy to pick it up. Any help would be very appreciated.

My brother had a cyst removed six days ago from his pituitary gland. They checked it no cancer. The following day his sodium dropped to 126. He was put on some medication to lift it back up after four hours. It went to 127. Four hours after that, they got it up to 136 the very next day and release him. He is about 125 miles from home because he’s at UCLA.

He and his wife decided to stay in town for a week and thank God they did.

Fast forward to today and he has severe headaches and his vomiting and when they checked his sodium, it dropped down to 118. Now they are admitting him to ICU. Has anybody ever heard of anything like this? I’m so concerned I love my brother so much.

I was on metformin IR for a month starting it and stopping it. Dr eventually wanted to get me to 2000 mg a day. I gave up because it was hard enough to take two 500 mg tablets.

Now my doctor has me on 500 mg ER two times a day and at the end of next week wants me to go to 750 mg ER two times a day.

I picked up my script and the pills are huge. How do you all take those big horse pills and what benefits have you got from taking 1500 mg of metformin ER a day?

I have PCOS, but I Am 57 years old and six years Post menopause. I’m sorry to let you all know that you’re young PCOS symptoms do not go away even after your period stop.

For year, I’ve had a pile on my dresser and a pile that has shifted around from one corner of my room to the other.

I don’t know what happened to me that just stops me from following through. I stumbled across this group. I don’t even know how, but I feel like out of all of the groups I follow this one is gonna be the most helpful to me.

Just from a little time, I’ve been here. I am so encouraged and I don’t feel discouraged like I have for years.

I can’t wait to take pictures of my disaster and also take pictures of it Clean. Thank you all so much for being here.

I have a lot of health issues. PCOS as it doesn’t go away just because you are five years post, menopausal, fibromyalgia, RA, and probably the most deserving is BAD which stands for bio acid diarrhea after having my gallbladder removed.

I don’t know where to begin. What app are you using and has it been beneficial? I am to the point where I’m exhausted and I feel like all I’m doing is getting bigger and bigger and bigger and I need some help. I know there’s a lot of different apps out there, but I would just like to know what has worked for you. Thank you in advance.
