After we were all talking about sleep issues in the Aug 2010 support thread, I coincidentally I came across this article

in my email today from PCOSA.

HTH!

You mean I can blame my daytime sleepiness on something other than stress and the heat here lately?

Actually I'm not surprised by this at all. When things get screwed up with your hormones or your endocrine system, it affects ALL kinds of things. That's why PCOS took so long to be recognized and why sometimes the diagnosis takes forever. The symptoms aren't obviously linked to each other...but they are thanks to hormones.

Thanks for posting that! I have been suffering from day time sleeping for years.... i thought i was just a loony person. I will have to talk to my dr about this because it does tend to effect my performance at work.
