Your body uses insulin to process blood sugar. IR (insulin resistance) is often a precursor to diabetes...consider it a built-in warning system.
For me, it helps to eat more small meals per day. I also have to exercise 30 minutes/day at least four times a week (otherwise, my body stops working properly). I don't eat any refined carbs (no potatoes, white rice, or processed sugar). Instead, I build my diet around lower-glycemic/lower-carb veggies and lean meats.
There is a great book out there called "The PCOS Diet Book." That is my Bible...it lays out so many of the nutritional deficiencies that go along with this syndrome!
I know this is all overwhelming right now, but after awhile, you'll be an expert.
