I've finally cracked and joined a forum . Desperate for some other opinions and some advice !!
After going eyes without a period, hounding doctors and feeling like I was going mental I finally caved and went private .
I def have PCOS , no cysts yet but a 'bulky right overy' and I can't specifically remember the details on my bloods but they were rating from much higher then norm to much lower then they should be .
This is a run down of various things from the average week but I'm not sure which of this is actually the pcos and which isn't ?
I wake up nearly every morning with pain on my right side ( this has gotten worse over the last few weeks and it now isn't just mornings ) .
I have that much hair I feel like the bearded lady and constantly have tweezers with me for emergencies !
I have a horrible sleep pattern , I can end up havin maybe two hours a night ? I'm really active during the day so should sleep well, but even when I have a decent nights sleep it doesn't last long .
I feel exausted late afternoon most days , to the point I'm praying for a siesta even if I'm had a decent amount of sleep the night before .
I do not have periods unless I'm on the pill they put me on ' to hopefully stop cysts developing'
I go through stages of having extreme nausea , think crazy morning sickness but all the time .
I'm not overweight at all but of the last few weeks my stomach bloats more then normal and goes rock hard and is painful .
I have mood swings so bad I have actual given a nickname to the moody , hormonal version of me so my friends , family and partner don't think I actually hate them or I'm crying because of something they have done (usually I'm crying because of a sad advert or for no reason at all , which makes me cry more !
It sounds like nothing and I'm sorry to be 'me,me,me' ish but I'm just hoping I'm not the only person cracking up ?!
I'm 28 and it's just seems there's isn't a day that goes by without me feeling sick,dizzy,crazy or in pain and the feedback getting is that there's nothing they can do for me , not to bother trying to have kids without metformin and that they won't give me anything like that until I want kids .
I'm so , so fed up at the moment .
Please any words of wisdom , encouragement or just a plain 'pull yourself together woman ' would be so much appreciated because if I have to hear how victoria beck has it or my mates , mates sister has it and they don't have any symptoms and a tribe of children for much longer I think I'll go more insane then I currently feel !!!
