I have a question, how many do see a dietician? I feel that it's pointless
because I know it's not me doing this, it's the syndrome. I'm so tired of
hearing the endo and gyn echo the same thing, "Loose weight". If only it
were that easy! (Nothing worse than a small doctor who could be blown away
in a gust telling you, "I know how it is" yeah right!) Any thoughts?
