PCOS and hypo

Does anyone out there have PCOS and hypothyroid? In my relentless search for answers to my hair loss issue and with the instinctual belief that this could be something else.. I keep stumbling over PCOS. In addition to the hair loss, about 8 months ago I noticed alot more annoying peach fuzz on my face. No additional hair on the rest of my body. In addition to this I have had this unexplained pitted edema no matter how high my thyroid med was raised and this symptom always remains when I have felt pretty good.

The edema problem accounts for all of my switches in med dosage.

I wonder how much of a stretch this is.. but every time in the last six months that I have mentioned facial hair I have been brushed off. Doesn't any of this warrant an investigation? I don't even know who to go to for this and the docs I have are like done with me already.. Is this a possibility for why I am not getting 100% well?
