Clarification
Jen posted the following comment about the current accusations by Michael.
She can’t just go off if its anti depressants, or something like that. It’s very dangerous. She has to go off a little bit at a time or shes going to be in for bad headaches for weeks
Now, I’m not taking Jen’s comment to be anything against me because if she has something to ask me she should know that I don’t bite. I like Jen, have no beef with her, etc. What I do think is that it makes Michael look even dumber that one of his “commenters” pointed this out.
I’m sure she’s right. Going off an anti depressant probably does really screw with your system and probably cause bad headaches like she said. I’d have to research that, but honestly I knew a girl who was on all kinds of different medications right after she graduated because of severe depression and I’m not sure she’s the same to this day. Very sad.
If either Michael or RV had read the blog post I made instead of just starting to jump to idiot conclusions they would know that everything they accused me of was clearly addressed in the blog posting. Not only did I seek a second opinion I am seeking yet a third tomorrow with a specialist. I’m working on a new family doctor, but the opinion of my GYN about the medication that I stopped taking is fine with me. Tomorrow I’ll get a referral for a new family physician and I’ll soon have a yet a third opinion on the medication front as well as a fourth on the breast issue.
What I find funny is that you are stalking my every move and saying that I don’t have the sense to think of getting a second opinion when you didn’t have the sense to read the post that was entirely about a second, third, and possibly fourth opinion all happening within a month. The only exception will be the family physician and in case you hadn’t lived in a town which has a population of under 50K and a less than desirable economy doctors are not jumping on the ship get here and take new patients. It’s like pulling teeth hence why I’ve stayed with him this long.
Michael. The last time I checked NOBODY was a threat to themselves or the public if they went off of blood pressure medication. Quite the contrary. I was a threat taking it because my blood pressure was dropping so low that I would literally almost pass out while driving. That happened once, and I never let it happen again.
The truth is you want so badly to believe that I’m on some anti depressant or mood suppressant or some type of crazy pills that you can’t stand it. Possibly it’s because you take them or you don’t take them because you can’t afford them. I take three medications. Glucophage for PCOS which is used primarily to treat type 2 diabetes, Ambien as needed to help me with insomnia, and Zyrtec for allergies.
Last time I checked not taking any of those wasn’t making me a threat to anyone, not even myself. You fucking moron.

I’ve wanted to tell you for so long that I have PCOS too. I don’t think that I can get pregnant either. I used to take acto plus met for it, which is also a diabetes medication. I HATE having PCOS
I had to have my right ovary removed because of it last year. They went in to get rid of a large cyst, and they found a tumor in it (it wasn’t cancer). I hope the fertility medication works for you. I hope one day it will work for me too.
Marie I can’t believe that! I have met a lot of people who have PCOS and they all seem to get semi cured and it’s really kinda frustrating. I don’t want to make it sound like I’m happy you have had problems but damn it makes me feel semi normal. Everyone I know who has PCOS ends up taking medication, going on bc, going off bc, and while in the process of adopting getting pregnant. Dare I dream that happens?
In reality if you can manage it I guess it’s not that bad, but it kicks my ass most of the time. I can’t believe you had an ovary removed. I also supposedly have one other problem that’s not a big huge deal. Although the doctor I was seeing wasn’t a fertility doctor and apparently she was known to just say that people had this problem so she could go research what she wanted to so we’ll see.
I’m torn. I want a baby, but if periods and cysts suck this bad then what is pregnancy going to be like?
