I was diagnosed with pcos 2 years ago. it took 6 years of painfull periods and literlly hundreds of doc. visits before anyone would believe me that somthing was wrong. I had doctors that told me I was in pain because I didnt know how to wipe myself properly after i took a poo, Then had a nurse explain the procedure to me like i was a 2 year old. The humility made me feel even worse. and the pain become worse. It got to the point that I couldnt even have sex with my husband because the cramping was so intense. all the time I kept gaining more and more weight and didnt know why. my fam was on my case saying I must be eating to much food. i became so depressed and confused. i continued to see diff doctors and con. to re-explain the symptoms over and over. I would go to the ER in the middle of the night balling my eyes out, dizzy and ready to pass out from pain, they would do paps and all I could do was to not to scream from the pain. finally I went to yet another doc. and literlly begged though tears for her to help me. she sent me to a specialist who 2 months later diagnosed me with pcos. I was so stunned that somone acually knew what was wrong and that I wasnt crazy I jumped up and hugged her. She scheduled a surgery to check my fallopian tubes and inject the dye into them, blow them out. it worked for the pain. thank god. I was put on metformin,tylenol 3 and ponstan for my painfull periods then I toke clomid for 9 months. every month was a roller coaster ride, thinking maby this month Ill be preg. then nothing,such highs and lows every month was causing havoc on my marriage and my own thoughts of adequescy as a woman. even my closest friends where keeping their own good news of preg from me cause they didnt want to upset me, which upset me more.finally I needed a break, went off clomid in dec and still no preg. only now my period hasnt come at all last or this month. had a blod test and am not preg. what the hell is going on now!
