A myPCOSteam Member asked a question 💭
Warrington, UK

I had a sandwich, snack and a drink for my lunch a couple of hours ago and I've just started feeling sick and really bloated
I'm just hoping that I ain't getting another annoying cyst as I don't fancy another laparoscopic cystectomy as after the first one I had I'd had to stay in hospital for an extra few days as I'd got an infection afterwards either after the surgery or whilst I was in recovery

Warrington, UK

Does Anyone Else Have Extremely LOW Cortisone/cortisol Levels? Or Know Anyone That Does And How To Help It?

A myPCOSteam Member asked a question 💭
Virginia Beach, VA

Thank you!!
