My stuggle; My story

I am one of the 5 million women diagnosed with Poly-Cystic Ovarian Syndrome in the United States. 
Some women don't even see it as a bad thing, they think they are fine. 
Some people don't even think they have a struggle.
Which is great for them, but unfortunately that is not my story, 
needless to say the struggle is real. Recently someone asked my how I deal 
with my PCOS, and it occurred to me that I am still figuring that out. I wanted
to share my story once again, to try to help others who might struggle. If you are 
interested in reading my original story please read:

that goes into more detail about my diagnosis, and how I was dealing with everything back in 2013. 
The first thing I would suggest is find a doctor who is going to listen to you, and who you sort of wish you had tea with once a week because that's how much they care about you.

Second: understand your symptoms. You need to know what the symptoms are, and which ones are manifested in you. After that go back to that doctor that cares so much about your health, and figure out what's going to be the best solution for them. Understand that there won't be an easy fix. But that doesn't mean it's the end of the road. 
Third: take it one day at a time. Understand that some days are going to be better than others, and some days you might just want to cry all day. One of those days every once and awhile are completely fine, as long as once you've finished straighten your crown and ovary up. 
Fourth: Finally understand that it's okay to be scared, but you need to understand that everything is going to be okay. 
Each day I fight this battle, and I feel as though each day I get one step closer to being better. I have an amazing support system that understand that even though I don't look sick, I still hurt. I have started taking control and that's the only way you can beat this. Control your life, find your support, and win.
