Smile New Here

Hello!

I just found the site and I am so glad I did!


I was diagnosed with PCOS 5 years ago, and up until 6 months ago was never aggressively treated for it. I've struggled with my weight, facial hair, periods, etc. All things I know you all can relate to. And I am sure you can all relate to the "just exercise more - you need to eat less" mantra given my most doctors. (As if we didn't know that, already) But I fought and finally found a new doctor who gave me a proper diagnosis, and in the process has also discovered a case of hypothyroidism. So now I have hope.

And drugs.


I am currently on Metformin, Levoxyl, and HZTZ for high blood pressure.

I like to say I am fat and broken. And I say that because if I don't have a sense of humor about all of this - I will lose my mind.


Anyway - hello. I look forward to getting to know all of you.
