Post scots way-hey!!

i was in a message thread there and came across a message saying how many scots there are with this condition. i can't remember who, but someone said we should have a support group for us. maybe it was just a joke but i think its a good idea. it would help a lot to have someone local, and nearby to talk to about this. what do you all think?
while i am on, how's it going getting a tv programme to cover this topic?

Hi Nellie (and Valerie)

I love the idea of a Scottish PCOS support group.

Age 30 - textbook case, I've got ALL the symptoms and am getting broody - so believe me I am grateful for my good sense of humour!
Been diagnosed 1993 and have been on dianette since, but, have recently come off due to high BP. Hoping to start Merformin soon.
Would like to hear from any other Scottish Cysters on the subject.
