peekay,
I think you'd be pushing it to get into anyone sooner than Sept 13. I'm lucky in that I've been seeing my FS as a gyn patient for the last 11 years. So I was already on her books. She was on leave when I was trying to book so I had to wait about 5 weeks I think. I see Dr Karen Watson. I think she's totally fantastic. I'm more comfortable with women when it comes to this stuff and she's totally relaxed about things and no fuss. If you have heard good reports about Scott Salisbury and would really like to see him then you should wait. I think its worth the wait to get the person you want - this stuff is just too important. All the best with whatever you decided - keep us posted
Hi Peekay,
I have done 2 more tests - same result. Still no AF! AARRGH - I was doing so well with regular AF first time ever. With PCOS, you never know when she might go AWOL.
Hope all is well with you.

Sorry to hear that ticklish. It's so hard with PCOS to know what's happening isn't it? For women without PCOS who have a long cycle, it's easy to be optimisitic and say "it may be late ovulation" or "it might be a BFP and too early to show". With PCOS, you are right- you never know what will happen and there often isn't an explanation. It's a big part of the frustration I think we all feel. There's no rhyme or reason to this syndrome. Some ovulate, some don't; some have AF, some don't; some have weight issues, some don't; some have acne, some don't. It's a BFP (BIG FAT PAIN!)
I'm OK thanks. Still waiting for 13th September (32 more sleeps!) so I can find out if I need a lap to have my dermoid removed/ or start clomid. I'm freaking out about it a bit- the fear of surgery more than anything. I just need to be put out of misery and find out what's going to happen!
Hi Peekay,
AF has gone AWOL - official result from the BT!
I think I will go to the gym this week and whip my jelly legs and bottom into shape to help the cycles! I was 2 stone lighter when DS was concieved - I am not even overweight now!! Just heavier!!
Only 31 sleeps for you now!

I'm feeling much better than last week! I think it was just a bad week for me and after being a big sooky la-la I feel OK.
tiggerlinda- I hate being bored too! I guess I'm lucky in a way- with my work, I am NEVER bored- the children keep me way too busy for this to happen. While it's tiring, it really passes the time quickly. I made my spec. appointment 6 weeks ago now and I thought it would take forever (10 week wait). When I look back, though, it has gone really fast. Only 31 sleeps to go!
Hi to you too LizJessie- hope all is well for you!
Ticklish- Sorry to hear about AF. Stupid AF. Does working out really help?? As you know, I'm not overweight, but haven't been to the gym since going off BCP. I was just saying to my girlfriend who I go with that we need to get back into it! Do you think it would help in my situation? I know it won't hurt, and it always makes me feel great. I just need some tiny little thing that will keep me hoping- and when that gets fizzled out I look for something else. Exercise might just be what I need both physically and emotionally- stupid eh?
Take care!

I haven't been to the gym yet, got study to do today - but yes, exercise can help - even if it is just for a bit of stress relief and to get the endorphins flowing - not stupid at all. I'd say go for it!
I am actually at a weight where my AF has always disappeared in the past - never to return until I lost weight. I thought being post-baby was helping the AF because I was regular. In the past, being lighter definitely has helped the AF - although not always regular!. I lost 3 stone in the 2 years before we even started to TTC and it seemed to help - managed to concieve twice when we were told it was unlikely to ever happen. Weight is not a problem in your case - a little bit my problem now!
Now back to the study - better check the gym timetable too!
