I think it is VERY hard for our loved ones to accept that we have a real problem. Because we dont LOOK sick. I think PCOS makes you feel horribly, emotionally, mentally, and physically. You try to fight the fight, but it gets exhusting.
Why dont you introduce your husband to this site? Let him read other cysters post's, maybe then he will make a connection.
Me and my DH had a discussion about this the other day, he has a COLD!!!! and he is to sick to do anything. I went off!!! I ask him how would he like to deal with the things I have to deal with? Like the bleeding and the cramps and the cysts and every other thing!! I told him I have been sick for years, so I did not really feel sorry for him and his cold!!!!
DH cant say nothing about my weight gain, because he aint no bean pole!!
Good Luck to you!!
