Hello Tammie,

You are not alone, trust me. I am 31, have been suffering from PCOS since aged 16, diagnosed at aged 22, I have the most excrutiating periods imaginable, with sickness as well. I am on a diet every day of my life, I have to tell u though, I saw an endrocologist and loosing the weight REALLY HELPS, so much so I managed to have a baby, when ever I put weight on, my symptons are worse, honestly. I have managed to get my weight down to a reasonable weight, but honest if I dont eat 15000 cals a day I put weight on, I really have to diet every day!!! IT IS TRUE!!!! Please email me any time I would love to offer u support I have just split from my husband due to my terrible period related mood swings!!! TAKE CAREXXXX
