Unhappy PCOS treatment question

Hi

Im not a newbie to PCOS but to treatments.

After one of my monthly visits to the Doc yesterday, i was reduced to tears as i was told theres nothing they can do to help me.

Ive been on Dianette for nearly 7 monthes, they want to keep me on it for another 6.

Weight management wise i have been going the gym 3/4 days a week, i have an exercise bike i do every day. Ive been watching my food too. Ive actually put on another stone.

Ive got the bravery up to post my stomach, i am so worried about it, the doc doesnt really want to know, as you will see from the pic, its huge and hard, and the rest of me is resonably slim. http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...g/DSCF0902.jpg

A friend recommended getting a colonic, so im getting that. anyone else had one?

Im also very depressed, to the point where i cant hold down a job.

Im so desperate id rather have the lot removed than feel and look like this :'(

Is it true that there is nothing really they can do for me? I thought you could get them removed or like lasered off? Is this not an option, can you be prescribed something to help the weight come off?

Can you go to a different doctor? If the doc is saying they can't help you, I would go to someone else. I don't know what your health system is where you are, are you stuck with that doctor?
