Hi, @nikkit. I wanted to add my welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect and introduce you here in this discussion to some other Connect members who may have insights for you: @dawn_giacabazi, @gmhelin, @infinitykitty,@autumnleaves, @beckym, @alicein_wonderland, @michellecrcrn, @techi @hopeful33250 @contentandwell and @taterjoy.
How long have you been experiencing the urinary frequency? Can you share with us more about what you've been experiencing there?

Hello @nikkit
I can certainly understand your concern, these sound like very uncomfortable symptoms. You said that you were diagnosed with PCOS, how long was that diagnosis made? Were you having those symptoms then or did they start recently? I suggest that you notify your doctor about this change - it is really important for the doctor to know of any change of symptoms that might be related to a diagnosis. The doctor is the best person to evaluate these changes and then put your mind at ease.
As I wasn't familar with PCOS, I found some information on Mayo's website, https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/pcos/symptoms-causes/syc-20353439. You might look at this description of the disorder and see how it applies to your current problems.
Will you contact your doctor's office next week and report these symptoms? We would love to hear back from you and know how you are doing. Please keep in touch. At Mayo Connect we care.

My feet are extremely swollen but only when i walk or sit with my feet hanging down, i urinate a lot but mainly during the days, the urinary frequency started since the end of August, it's very hard for me to sleep on my belly or my back.
If i try to sleep on my belly it feels like something is hard is in my belly and makes me uncomfortable, if i try to sleep on my back it feels like i can't breath and something is sticking me. I was diagnosed with PCOS sometime last year so i am not sure what's happening with me and i am worried to be honest.
