Hello everyone! I was diagnosed as Borderline Diabetic by taking the fasting test overnight. I also discussed the possibility of having PCOS with my doctor because of weird periods, pains in my ovaries, the skin tags, dark skin, obesity, etc. She originally placed me on Metformin to help me with my sugar levels and when I told her about my ovary problems she told me that Metformin also treats PCOS. She scheduled an ultra sound and I canceled because I was too scared to go. I have a friend who has been trying to conceive for years and has had many problems, even tried fertility shots. I just found out that she was diagnosed as Diabetic and with PCOS. She said she is on Metformin and it helping her. I went back to the doctor and had my sugar levels checked again by the same test and everything was fine. I quit taking the metformin and now I definately think I should be back on it and go to the doc. I weigh 340 pounds and am only 19. My husband and I are not trying to get pregnant, but as many times as we haven't used protection, I should be. I also gained 70 pounds over this last year! My friend with these problems told me I should get the 3 hour fasting glucouse test because it is much more accurate. I have all the symptoms for PCOS, and have been having sugar problems once again before and after eating. My friend also told me that 93% of women with PCOS are diabetic, is this true? Can anyone offer me advice on how to go about being diagnosed and the diabetes side of it? I really need to loose weight and I am trying to get my health under control. I am obese, anemic, have high blood pressure, bipolar, and now maybe have PCOS and Diabetes. Any advice would be appreciated very much!
