Default Did I do the right thing?????

Hiya Sisters,

I need your opinion on something i have done.

I went out last night for a friends birthday Anyway one of the girls that came out with us started talking about her contraceptive injection and how she wasn't feeling too good on it.

Now me and this girl don't get on. To be frank she hates me for some reason (something to do with me going out with someone she wanted to go out with when we were 16 and i didn't even know her!!!). So I started asking her the bits and bobs of her problem and low and behold she described a lot of PCOS symptoms. I then looked at her and noticed she had some facial hair and was only big around her stomach. I started mentioning about what I had and how i didn't know about it for a long time and she started to get really angry and misserable and pulling faces at me.

So I stopped trying to talk to her and dragged my best friend into the ladies loo. She is a good friend of this girl and I told her to drop hint, leave books, whatever it took to get her to go to doctors to get herself checked out.

What I want to know is have I done the right thing or am I so blinded by my condition that I am trying to force it on to everyone (like i think this girl thinks i am). As much as I hate the girl, I don't want her to go through what i've been through.

Whayda think???

Hello

((hugs)), I'd say that you've done the right thing. In not saying too much when she was getting stressed, but she knows where you are if she thinks about it - and realises this could be her.

Good idea for you to mention it to your mutual friend, too, that was she has someone else that she can talk to about it too.

Default You did right

Pink,

you did the right thing, its just that she wont thank you for it, but you did right and maybe if she is a mature person and it does come to light that she has PCOS she may thank you and who knows you two could become firm friends!

On a lighter note, I find myself looking at girls who might have an apple shape etc and wonder to myself "Hmm I wonder if she has PCOS?"

Helen
