Very inspiring ladies! Thank you. I myself was diagnosed with PCOS in 2009 yet the symptoms have always been around. It kinda bothered me bc I had self diagnosed myself in my early teens as I aspire to become a physician, and healthcare fascinates me. Nevertheless I have been married almost 7 years and we have not been preventing the entire time. In 2009 is when I talked to my PCP and asked for a referral bc of irregular menses and whatnot. I have tried several different drugs and two different RE as my husband is in the military and we move quite frequently in addition to deployments. Initially my sole purpose of being sleeved was to become a mother. I was obese but I had no other right out health issues. I know that doesn't mean I wouldn't develop any but I'm just letting you know where I was... say 3 years ago when I first attempted to be sleeved. I was unable to be sleeved back then bc my husband was deployed and I had no family support. Now three years later here I am sleeved and looking forward to a full recovery as my sleeving process has been challenging these last 8 weeks. I had pretty much given up on getting pregnant and was just tired of being fat.... tired of the up and down lose 35lbs gain 50 back....
