HI SUE

Hey, I thought that i was alone!! I also have pcos and i am not overweight, and therefore the doctors have very little sympathy. Having been fobbed off with BCPs for years, I have realised that the Doctors (I am in the UK) aren't interested. I have been low carbing and i feel better and I seem to have created a bit of regularity to my menstrual cycles (touch wood)

Mail me for a chat, as i have to go now

bye for now Alex
