Dear Mary, I am 30 yrs old and actually brand new to this site. I read your message and felt I might be able to put your mind at ease. I was miss diagnosed several times before finally having a pcos diagnosis. I too had ultrasounds appear "normal" and blood tests seem within "normal" ranges. If you recently have had a period your ovaries will look "normal" on the ultrasound, and blood tests will as well. Hope all turns out well for you! Jenn
