I know it sounds like a lot (and it IS alot) but I really want to understand everything about this syndrom and how not to feel like hell all the time, plus I want to be able to lend books to DBF and my mom who want to better understand. I plan on taking the diet books and merging them so I have one diet that will be most effective for me (and consulting with my DR once my insurance kicks in)

Good thing I like to read...I have a like 20 finction books i want to read to, so if i'm not around for a while, I have my nose in a book somewhere. I'll check in if I find anything to share with you ladies.

I love this site I just want to contribute to more than just the rant!!! section!!!

Its been almost a month since I ordered almost a month since I ordered my books, but I stil haven't gotten them. Noone seems to know why as the money was in my account, but the books were never shipped. Plus I can't find them in the book store. I've cancelled my orders and I am going to reorder the ones that ship in 24 hours and once i get Them order the ones that take longer, that way, by the time I finish, I'll have the new books.

I just wish it wasn't taking so long.

That really sucks. I've never had a problem with amazon before, and I order from them alot. It is true that you can't find books on PCOS at the bookstore, although I believe they can order them for you. I recently got "the savvy womens guide to PCOS" and I thought it was wonderful. Good luck with the books, I hope you get them soon.

I have read "PCOS: The Hidden Epidemic By DR. Samuel Thatcher" and it has alot of good info but some of it i thought was too in depth for me. So i skipped a chapter or two. I would love to get my hands on the Colette Harris books. Ill have to look an ebay and see what they have.
