*sigh* i don't think anyone's safe from diabetes anymore. they need to hurry up and make that cure. i took metformin, but had problems with it so had to stop. mine wasn't so much hypoglycemia as much as bowel problems that were severe. that sucked, but then again, my insulin levels were fine, so i wasn't forced to keep trying it, thank goodness! i would say i'm a veteran of infertility aswell, considering it took 7 years of trying total to see my very first ever bfp. i have to say out of everything i've ever taken for it, that huge dose of patience worked the best. my luck was with clomid, though. i took it for 3 cycles and at my first ovulatory cycle it worked. i was very very lucky. i do wish you luck on your ivf, though. i don't want a fight either, so please know that now. i've had a rough few days with stomach issues so you can tell by my responses when my days are good vs bad. and i know that clomid increases your chances of multiples. i was terrified at the thought because (had to take a break from typing to watch my two clawless cats box. it's like a hilarious silent movie) anyway, because i feel like i could one at a time better. my whole position was that clomid + metformin don't necessarily work any better than clomid alone. and i 100% believe that because i do trust what my doctor learns in her conferences. maybe i was being misunderstood in my previous posts. so, if i may, is this your first baby you're working on? this would be mine too.
