I finally have my diagnosis of PCOS. After reading this website I truly believe that I have had this since I was 18- 19 I am now 33 soon to be 34. I have been truly blessed (By God) to have had 2 beautiful children (Joshua 10, Lydia 5) I lost 130lbs back in 93-94 and was able to get pregnant with my son. I gained that weight back and in 98 by some miracle I got pregnant, with my daughter. I have all the symptons (cyst on ovaries(one they are still watching), facial/body hair (where you don't want it), depression, paranoid, skin tags, dark patches on skin, you know the routine. I was amazed at all of the things that go along with having PCOS. I was upset at first but am now glad that I finally have a diagnosis of why all of this has been going on for so many years. I am new at this so I have been started on Met just this week so I hope and pray that I am able to tolerate this. I need to loose so much weight but I will take this one day at a time and one pound at a time. Thanks so much for this website. I am a carb eater (thus explains the weight around my middle mostly) so I am always looking for some snacks that are good for you (low carbs). Thanks,

Hello and welcome to SC! It sounds like you're getting started on the right track - met can be a fussy a little thing, but hang in there - the pay off from this med I think is worth it!
