Thanks for your responses ... I was feeling pretty low after my Drs appointment on Friday, it's so easy to feel on your own with PCOS especially when dealing with a Dr who just doesn't understand but, frustratingly, holds all the cards as far as referring you on for fertility treatment!
Coolpunkgirl - thanks so much for your advice and recommending a Dr for me I'll definately be looking him up! And I thought 18 months was way too long! On the Fertility Associates website it says 12 months wait is plenty ... and I knew that, I'd looked it up (librarian by trade) I just doubted myself by the time the end of the appointment came ... anyway, I'm now getting an appointment with a herbalist in Hamilton who specialises in fertility so here's hoping ... I'll let you know how that goes for your future reference ...
Febraurystar - Thanks for the diet empathy! It is sooooooooo frustrating to be doing all the hard yards and not seeing any difference. My Dr went through my diet with me and she couldn't find anything that needed to improve (Ha!) the only thing she said was I should increase my exercise from 4 x a week to 6! Holy guacamole! But, yeah, I'll definately keep the diet up, at the very least it makes me feel better about myself on the inside even if it doesn't show on the outside ... yet! |
