Name: Sarah
Age: 31
I've been diagnosed since 1994, since then have dealt with various symptoms but mainly;
weight gain, depression, hirsuitism, acne, water retention, fatigue, dizziness, mental fogginess, loss of memory, infertility, hair thinning, skin tags and am now checking for IR.
Is it any wonder we are so fed up?! At least we know what it is now but boy can it be a struggle getting anything done medically!
I'm a mixture of NHS & Private, although I need to find a decent endo asap because of scary IR symptoms.
Also diagnosed with reflux, which may account for some of the scary IR symptoms too......heck, who knows.
Am not on any meds as I am too scared of side effects / or if they work, having to come off them one day and deal with it all again anyway! Use dto be on SSRI's some years back, maybe that's why I'm reluctant to use meds unless I have no choice.
I have had a major sense of humour failure in recent weeks as i am now "officially fed up" with PCOS in terms of not getting support (grumble, grumble, gripe gripe!). So I'm looking in to starting a PCOS support group in my area.
Anyway - nuff from me - onward and upward!
Love Sarah
xxxxxxxx
