Well yeah, but all too often doctors say ‘lose weight’ as the only option without even considering others. “One would hope a doctor is tactful, aka good bedside manner, and helps patients rather than just says stuff.”

Definitely agree with this, it was “lose weight and you’ll be fine” but not “losing weight will help the most, however it can be difficult with PCOS, so here are some options that might help”
I suffer sciatica and ocular rosacea. Both are chronic conditions. I was lucky to have doctors who taught me how to look after myself and I try hard to do everything they said. It’s hard though, there’s no magic bullet , no cure, just management on my part.

had a mate get told her ankle problems were caused by her weight.
…her weight was caused by the fact she was unable to exercise because her ankle was fucked. By a misfused bone.
