I am glad they foun...Hi, welcome to the blog Lizz.<br /><br />I am glad they found out you have PCOS, are they going to treat it? Hope you have found a doctor who is knowledgeable about it.<br /><br />That wasn't very nice of your mother to say, she needs to stop acting like your weight is your fault especially with a PCOS diagnosis and if you have spinal problems obviously you have pain that is going to limit your mobility.<br /><br />Wow that guy spitting at you that is horrible. I have had those types too and tell them off. That is sick, what a judgemental you know what.<br /><br />Don't give in to pressure for WLS, yes I've had that so many times more then I can count and they add in oh you are high risk and make excuses when I said two surgeons didnt even want to do two other surgeries on me so how's that GOING TO WORK?<br /><br />If you have problems with large breasts, you should have them test some of the pituitary levels, they may have done that with the PCOS tests, but make sure they pursued the prolactin levels, ACTH etc. <br /><br />For thyroid have them test the TSH, that does sound a bit high. <br /><br />Yeah there is judgemental people. If your older brother, has CUSHINGS SYNDROME, IT DOES RUN IN FAMILIES.<br /><br />Just so you know.<br /><br />I think something more could be going on with you definitely.<br /><br />Does sound like my history, my father had multiple autoimmune problems and died of a undiagnosed endocrine problem. <br /><br />I am sorry your family is treating you the same way. It is tough isn't it. I may write about something more recent. And open up about the family.<br />It is always terrible when that happens. Even if they have young children they should take some time for hello or something. <br /><br />Yeah the 1980s were better. I was 12 years old in 1980...and today everything seems so dark and flat, including fashion and the clothes. <br /><br />Hope your husbands health improves--praying.<br /><br />Write me any time at

I think they are neglecting so many studies when it comes to people in the greater weights. The world is so small, I feel like people who are normal sizes live such a different existence.Five Hundred Pound Peephttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05862707335431442713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-650289478442133391.post-68843572942291338422012-05-02T17:24:33.566-07:002012-05-02T17:24:33.566-07:00Sorry you have faced this anon.

I already walk with a cane for balance, just about everywhere I go. I wish I was 300lbs too. I don't believe them about how we are to lose weight anymore. It doesn't work. I had actually become more active, and now I am thinking if I get ill the more I do? What am I supposed to do. I feel for you as well and will pray for you.Five Hundred Pound Peephttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05862707335431442713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-650289478442133391.post-58862022724648979322012-05-01T16:21:16.767-07:002012-05-01T16:21:16.767-07:00I have fallen too and have had to call the paramed...I have fallen too and have had to call the paramedics. It is extremely embarrasing and frightening. I wish I could lose weight to at least 300 pounds.
