Open Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)

I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 19 by my gynecologist, however my primary doctors (the one I had at the time and the ones I've had since, seem to have differences in opinions)

Treatments

Oral Contraceptives Somewhat Helpful

Open Anxiety

I've always been an anxious person even when I was a child. My triiger to anxiety is usually people, I have social anxiety. I used to get so nervous from being around people when I was in school that the nurse would have to send me home because I was pale, cold, and sweating. Now as an adult I often get sick just from going to the store, if can even muster up the courage to get off my car and walk into the store. I feel sick, physicaly sick, physical pain.
