I am a little concerned to start my presurgery diet. All I am allowed to have for two weeks before the surgery is protien powder and water. I have never been diagnosed as diabetic, but because of my PCOS I am insulin resistant- hence why every carb I eat went straight to my a**- My OBGYN put me on glucophage a few years back. I never really lost weight on it, but it did help to regulate my periods and keep me from having severe menstrual pain.
About a month ago I stopped taking my meds. My scripts had run out and I knew that my surgeon's office had said they would prefer me to stop taking the meds unless medically necessary. Things have been fine except for a couple of occassions where I would feel a bit shaky and sometimes break out in a sweat, but if I drank some juice or a pop it would stop.
Now that I know I will not be able to have those things I am concerned that it could happen again- My real question- is the trembling that I felt caused because I had sugar in my system and then was dropping- like withdrawl, or because I need sugar in my system?? Just curious what is in store for me .... Any insight????
