yeah,
I have to educate my Dr. Its sad, really. I think that I'm going to look through their Dr's and see if there's someone else I can talk to. Mine still thinks that my left ovary hurting every month is because I pulled a muscle. I mean, really? I pull the same muscle every month, right when I'm suppose to have a period? and if I don't have a period, it hurts until I do? ugh... Dr's are a pain in the ass to deal with. If I get a male Dr, he better be an expert in the field... I think that if any of us has had a decent Dr experience, they are lucky. for something that is so prevalent, no one knows a lot about it. and that sucks. Keep searching for someone who will listen, and not just the "i'm hearing what you say, but I'm the Dr, so its going in one ear and out the other" I just want to shout to these idiots
" YOU MAY BE A DR, BUT I'VE HAD TO LIVE WITH ME FOR THE PAST 23 YEARS, I THINK I KNOW MY OWN BODY!!!"
oh yeah, i didn't have ANY cysts, when I was diagnosed. but I didn't have a chance to go through my normal shaving ritual, so the Dr's could see that I was covered in excess body hair (I originally went to the hospitol because i just wouldn't stop bleeding... that was incredibly scary-- the the official diagnosis on the paper doesn't even say PCOS, but that's what the Dr kept telling me I had... "Dysfunctional Uterine Bleeding" Thanks for that, i could have come to THAT conclusion. )
Good luck, hun.
