Going to the doctor tomorrow...

where he will most likely confirm I have PCOS. I have such anxiety about this - I don't know how I'm going to sleep

My question to you ladies with PCOS, what important questions should I ask him once I get my diagnosis? I want to be somewhat prepared with a list of questions and concerns so I walk out there informed.

Re: Going to the doctor tomorrow...

What helped me in the diagnosis was knowing what my hormonal levels were for the specific tests that are 'off' with PCOS. Ask if there's a nutritionist they can recommend. Mine helped me out so much. Also, ask what course of action they will do and how long for. (In other words, if what they start doing doesn't work within X amount of time, what's the next course of action?) I'm sure others have better questions than I do.
