I have been diagnosed.

Although diagnosed probably not a good word.
PCOS - a syndrome, that comes from god knows where, differs from woman to woman and they don't have a way to treat it...
At least now we know why I am getting fat so easily and everything is broken in my body and it doean't work well...
I was told to lose a stone and take some more hormones, which never helped me. I will try and lose the excessive weight (it's not that bads with my bmi being 26, there are some girls that are fighting pocos and have got bnmi of 46 and more).
I am angry at my body and I am sad - feeling powerless.
Doctors can help me manage symptoms - and that's it.
If I want to have babies, they may give me loads of hormones - and that's it.
I should be gratefull I don';t have eccesive hair growth, and it's only my acne that adds up to the "other" symptoms, so I can live like an almost normal person...
I don't know what to think.
Basically - it's not bad, it's not cancer, I am not going to die.
I don't understand why it makes me sad...

Your life has been turned upside down, and you will have to rearrange a lot of things.
You will cope, I am sure - but right now you're upset and dizzy.
I wish you all the best. Hang in there. It's going to be allight.

I apologize, really - comparing your situation with mine - I just look stupid worrying about stuff...
I am hoping it will all end up well for you and I am very proud of you being so strong!

When I was left for the first time in my life by my girlfriend at the tender age of 19, I was in much bigger distress than I am now.
You grow with the challenges, and everybody seem to be challenged to their limit many times in life.
When I say that I understand, I really mean it.
