hey everyone,

i am just curious, anyone with PCOS did it resolve, or at least did the flare up calm down. I am down 50lbs from surgery and besides my sugar got better thats about it. But i have heard from a people it got worse for them, so just wondering if anyone else has information about it. Please let it resolve :(.

It depends on the cause of the PCOS, if the root cause was being overweight then it will resolve. I have a friend that is very very thin and has PCOS and hers was caused from Endometriosis. I hope yours resolves because Im telling you I felt so bad for her when she had her flair ups....brought her to her knees.

yes they are not sure what brought mine on 12 years ago. but i am praying it was bc of the weight. bc the flare ups are nasty. my poor husband lol. on our first date i told him to research it before he wanted to be serious.

I have PCOS also and when I lost weight in the past only certain parts of it would lessen up. My periods would return (1 I could live without) and the pain from cysts would lesson but the body hair and headaches still happened. I wish I could've picked and chose which symptoms hung around :-)

I guess this is a reality check that I may not get all I want, but I'm praying that my roots are weight related!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
