Did the online appt maker for my apparent doctor that I -have- to go to since I have an HMO which apparently means it sucks just enough that I have to go to this doctor and he has to make a referral to someone else if I have to go see someone else

*cuddles* I didn't know you have high blood pressure. Shouldn't you be on medicine for it? I mean, is it high all the time? If it is, that's serious. You need to take pills for it. Make sure the doctor checks your blood pressure and your sugar, too. I'm so sorry that you are feeling sick. *plays with your hair* Ane has sleep apnea and she has to wear a mask at night when she sleeps that is hooked up to a machine. Will your insurance cover that or at least pay some of it? Can you get back on your estrostep birth control? I swear, this country should have socialized medicine so everyone can get the doctors and the medicines that they need. It sucks that people work so hard and can't afford medical care and the medicines they need to take. Good luck at your doctor's appointment. Let me know how you make out.

If I get checked for PCOS again (they have to basically do an ultrasound on my ovaries to check for cysts but sometimes some ovaries won't show any cysts.. I had a couple of small ones), and I have it there are a few options I can take

This metformin sounds like a good deal, especially if it makes you lose weight. Maybe I should get some! lol It's such a struggle to lose weight. Meh. Recently though, I lost 20 pounds and a bit more. I now weigh 231. I've been eating twice a day; one meal is cereal and the other is a microwave dinner. I like them because they are small and the portions are controlled. Then if I want to snack I eat fruit. If I want a treat, I eat a couple of lollipops. They are nice and sweet and have no fat in them.

I get skin tags on my neck sometimes. I play with them until I can pull them off. I just got rid of one a couple of weeks ago. I know you mentioned that your condition makes you have testosterone. I think that hormone must increase as a person ages because I am constantly having to tweeze black whiskers off of my chin. Lovely. And I also have a moustash. I shave it off. It's not real dark, but it's noticeable. Ah, good times. So you aren't alone in the hair department, I'm right there with ya! ^_^
