Thats how I feel right now. I have PCOS. I get to go in Monday for a lovely 2 hour Diabetes test, the other blood tests they’ll do as well are to check my cholesterol that I will now have to have checked every couple years. Theres a couple others but I can’t think of them at the moment.
I get to look forward to taking meds for quite a while. They are going to put me on Metformin and it should help correct things. But we have to wait until the blood test results get back. My doctor may also put me on something to help clear up my acne and excess hair. I will be so very happy to have alot of this cleared up. Its very frustrating.

While this is all nerve racking to go through, I can give you hope. I had surgery last fall for similar issues. Once everything else started getting resolved, eveything else fell into place and the sugar levels corrected themselves. The best news from all of this was I went from a size 18-20 to a size 12-14. So keep your chin up and take everything one step at a time – it will get better.

Good luck with your test tomorrow. Bring a really good book to take your mind off things while you are waiting on the diabetes test to be completed.
