One step closer to treatment, I hope

[Angel Dreams]

*groans* For the best past of 10 years I have been battling my weight and it just keeps going up and up, it does not matter WHAT I do. I can drop a few kilos but then it just comes straight back and I find other people's lost weight too. But I don't loose size, it just grows...
It is quite depressing. Oh, did I mention the depression? lol
I actually kind of had a hunch that my depression might be a related problem from PCOS because of the whole hormone/chemical thing. *rolls eyes*

I don't have a specialist yet. I see my GP on Monday to get results from my bloods (I can't see it being much different to my blood tests for the past 10 years!) and to give him the results from my ultrasound.
I'm hoping (and I have a feeling he will) refer me to a more specific doctor so I can hopefully, finally, get some treatment.

I hate, absolutely LOATHE having to take the concoction of meds I'm on at the moment, (I have a myriad of problems from the depression to gastritis to migraines...), but if having to take something like Metformin, (my father is on it because he was diagnosed with Type II Diabetes about 6 months ago), that will help treat and to a degree, overcome a few things, then I will gladly, extremely happily, take it and everything else with no complaints!
Sorry for that huge running sentance, I tend to babble on a bit at times. *idiot grins*

I have read soooooooooooo much information on PCOS in the past 10 years. The bulk of the reading being more in the past 4 years...
It is so nice to find a doctor who is willing to listen to what you have to say and then try to get to the bottom of it.
I have had hormone problems since I was 15, I'm 26 btw.
I have had the depression since I was 15, that's for 11 years now.
And it's only just now that a doctor has listened when I said PCOS. I feel like I have been beating my head again a brick wall for the past 10 years!
I have seen many many doctors in my 26 years. I have moved a lot and been ill a lot.

I can do the whole healthy low GI diet, and I can do the exercise, that's how I seem to gain weight and size. It's catch 22 till I can break the chain...
Low stress is not an option for me. Family. I have 2 step kids too. Mister 10 and a Miss (Mrs?) 12...
AND I have them with me during the whole day by myself on Monday and Tuesday. I've never had to handle them by myself before. *faints*

Sorry, rambling again. *shy grin*

I have read a bit around here. The TTC threads and all.
Thanks, I'm sure everyone here is really nice.

Oh I had a research around about IVF online too. I didn't realise that Medicare came to the party for the costs!
They won't for a vasovasectomy, nor will private health funds! ARGH!


I think I'd better go to bed...
These pair are going to be ripping each other's throats out by 7am and DH leave for work at 6!
