Terrible, Terrible, Terrible.

That's how I feel.

Just upped my Metformin dosage and I am paying for it.

My throat hurts from puking. I feel like I threw up a brick.

FML.

OMG

AF has arrived and she is PISSED!

I don't think I've had cramps like this in a long time. If I knew I wouldn't sweat David out of the bed, I'd sleep with a heating pad. Wait...maybe that's not such a bad idea.

My meds are still working, I guess. My BP medicine still knocks me out every.single.time I take it. I'm not talking about feeling a little sleepy and laying down to take a nap. I'm talking about taking the pill and then an hour or so later, David wakes me up laughing because I have drool down the front of my shirt and a major crick in my neck. I even fell asleep in the middle of a conversation. SITTING UP. WITH A DRINK IN MY HAND. And I sleep so long! Let's say I take my pills at 8pm with dinner, by 10pm, I fighting to stay awake. Normally, I'll go take a shower and try to get a second wind. Around midnight, we head to bed. Within 10 minutes, I'm out cold. And I sleep. And sleep. And sleep. And sleep. David's been waking me up everyday that's he's been home. That's anywhere between 11am-12pm. Yeah... that's a LONG TIME! He says he tries to wake me up around 9 when he gets up, but I don't even respond. And I don't get up at all during the 11-12 hours I sleep. When I get up in the morning, I can barely walk because I have to pee so bad. It's freakin' crazy. I know you only sleep when your tired, so I must be REALLY tired.

I've been pretty good about remembering to take my meds. I have missed a couple of doses because we'll grab a late lunch and I'll totally forget about taking my pills. I have been able to tell when my BP is up. My face gets red, I get hot, and I get a headache. Oh joy! It took me almost 2 days to figure out that my BP was causing headache. Yes, I forgot to take my pills 2 days in a row. It happens. I think I need a BP cuff and a watch that beeps everyday at dinner time.

In PCOS related symptoms, my hair is falling out like crazy. It was so bad last night, I actually cried in the shower. Just a big handful of hair. It sucks. David offered to shave my head. He said he had to offer because I shaved his the day before. Gotta love David and his sensitive side.

UGH!!!

I don't know what it is, but I just can't shake this nauseous feeling. I know it's the Metformin, but it still sucks ass. I ate one bite of soup and I felt like I was going to puke all over myself. Just the smell of food makes me want to puke. Ugh... I hate this! I know I should eat something, but as soon as I put it in my mouth I feel sick. I've tried soup, crackers, dry toast, a pop-tart, and I'm still feeling like this. As long as I'm drinking, I should be OK. Right? I hope so because nothing is going in right now.

AF is being her normal bitchy self again. She should have been here already, but she's being a bitch. And this is where I run into a problem. Should I POAS just to be sure? Odds are it will be BFN since my last blood work showed I didn't ovulate. Should I waste a test? Essentially, that all it is. Wasting a test because I know it will be a BFN.

UGH...I hate being a woman.
