Well, All of my doctors are baffled. They have never heard this. I called my insurance company and basically they told me that they sent out the letter as a warning. I have no diabetes complications and Im 24... so im slightly at ease, but I hate that all these drugs have such side effects. I dont want to be taking a birth control pill that provokes complications! Anyway thanks for your input! My nurse is checking with the diabetes OB specialists just to make sure anyway..
