There are a few things you mentioned that met won't be curing - skin spots and scars for example have nothing to do with insulin resistance, so the meds probably won't touch those issues. And met by itself doesn't lose weight for you...I totally wish,  I had to seriously commit to diet and exercise and it still took me 3 years to take off the 60 pounds I had to lose. If you're Insulin resistant than it can put you on an even playing field with normal women, but it won't dissolve weight. Only our lifestyle can do that. 
My advice to you is to keep pestering Dr's until they hear you out about your symptoms. I saw 6 before I had one who gave me the time and consideration my symptoms needed and if the labs don't solve it, you need to find a Dr willing to follow up and see you through this. Medicine is a service industry. If your Dr doesn't take the time with you, then take your business elsewhere. Be proactive.
Hope it helps!
