vinesqueen 2 Posted February 1, 2006 okay, I'm finally home from school and work. *sigh* what a day, what a day. The good news is that the inital results from the tests are good, but this means that there are more tests to run. In the mean time she's going to treat my PCOS agressively, trying to deal with the underlying problem and not just give me birth control pills. She also gave me some anti-anxity pills. Apperently being stressed about not losing weight is not going to help me lose weight. Go figure. So, we still don't know what the matter is. I still need more tests. I'm on new meds.

La_madam 20 Posted February 1, 2006 The good news is that the inital results from the tests are good, That is good news Vines! trying to deal with the underlying problem and not just give me birth control pills Lets hope this does not happen, I just started birth control pills 2.5 weeks ago for some hormonal problems I have been having ever since my band was removed..it sucks...all I want to do is eat.

gentlespirit 1 Posted February 1, 2006 Waiting sucks! I hope that you'll get a definitive answer soon so they can begin treating it. Maybe the anti-anxiety pills will help...I know it's hard to stay strong when everything seems overwhelming. Know we all care about you and are holding you up in our thoughts. Take care of yourself.

PhotoNut 7 Posted February 1, 2006 The good news is that the inital results from the tests are good, but this means that there are more tests to run. She also gave me some anti-anxity pills. Apperently being stressed about not losing weight is not going to help me lose weight. Go figure. Excellent, the first pass was good. Sounds like you have a doctor who cares and is really trying to help you. I'm thrilled to hear the first round of good news. I'm even more thrilled because I just know there's going to be even more before this is all settled. *hugs* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ASPHALT ANGEL Posted February 1, 2006 Glad to hear that it was not what they had originally thought. Hope the new meds help with the stress. I take Zoloft for stress/depression and is sure helps me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Julie* 0 Posted February 1, 2006 Hi- Did you doctor say how she was going to treat your PCOS aggressively? I take 1500mg of metformin daily and am on the BCP. I have found that doing both has helped me quite a bit. My cycles are regular and much easier to deal with. I hope you get some answers soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zoe 6 Posted February 2, 2006 Hang in there, Vines. I'm glad you're getting some answers, even if they're coming slowly. If you have any doubts or questions about your meds, post a question here; so many of us have been on various mood-altering drugs that several people are bound to have had experience with whatever you're on. I hope you get answers and sensible treatment on the PCOS soon. Female trouble is no fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
