Becky, it sounds as though no one has properly started treating your PCOS yet, what a nightmare of symptoms and pain to go through! A lot of posts have come up on this subject recently so I will just point you to http://www.pcosupport.org and say that they have some great information and advice on talking to a doctor. I really hope your new endo knows what is going on! Take care.
