Unhappy Help

Hi everyone,

Hoping someone can maybe help me get on the right path as I'm so confused, and angry at his point.

Here is some history:

I have Nigracan Scanthosis (darkening of the skin) since before puberty onset. Doctor has also said Insulin Resistance, metabolic X syndrome. Had abnormal periods for years which have now become fairly regular although miss one now and again. I have had cysts on ovaries seen in ultra sound due to pain I was experiencing. One previous miscariage. Hirsutism has developed over the last few years. The doctors looked at pcos as a diaganosis but I'm unsure to this day if I have it. I was prediabetic for about year and now am diabetic. The only advice ever given to me me was to eat healthy and try to lose weight. I have tried numerous times and am not giving up. I was just put on metformin in July 09 and am at 1700 mg / day.

I'm so worried about not knowing what to ask and what to do anymore. I want to have children and need to lose some weight before attempting. I'm seeing a dietician now and am slowly losing. Please let me know if I'm missing something or if there is anything else coming my way I can try to prevent.

Thanks,
Lost Soul
