Hand Muscle pain
by Tweetygirl, Jul 18, 2006 12:00AM
I am on a medication for Polycystic Ovaries called glucophage. I was reading an article about the medicine and it was talking about some side effects and things associated with the drug. One thing it spoke of was lactic acidosis. I need to know how do I know if my lactic acid levels are okay? Some side effects of lactic acidosis are muscle pain. My hands have been sore and the muscles in my hands ache and have been weak since yesterday. I worked out in the yard yesterday and was wondering if I overstressed every muscle in my hand or is this feeling related to something caused by my medication. If you know anything about this topic please lend your advice and information. Thanks!

Thanks for your help!! Anytime there are side affects to a medication, tour doc should really explain them to you, especially during pregnancy. My cousin had to take medication during her preg. that effected her iron levels. Maybe there is some kind of blood test they can do. But if its bothering you really bad, go to the er. Or you could call your druggists, sometimes they can be very helpful.
