Your endo really sounds like an uncaring piece of work dear. It is so unfortunate we have to deal with this kind of thing being as miserable as we are. In this society of pill popping it is an absolute wonder why there is not a cure for PCOS and cancer. Have you heard about Dr. Lee's book? It really is a great book alled "What your Dr Won't tell you about Premenopause" by John Lee. Might be worth investing in it or seeing if the library has it. I had to read it over the summer since I was on break from classes. By the way, what is cyproterone acetate? May I ask what your degree is in? I don't know how the education system works in Canada, is it different than here? I will be getting a MBA starting Februrary but for right now I am not even working so I have NO money, it is so damn hard!
