I have PCOS, but I haven't been diagnosed with any sort of heart condition...as of my last appointment. I'm not sure if it directly correlates; my GYN has never mentioned it.

Good luck at your appointment--I hope it's nothing serious! :[

yea me 2 i never really thought about it til my endo told me she thought there might be something wrong, but like thinking back and talking to my friends they were like ya you said you thought your heart was beating weird at alot of sleep overs. and i know im greatly affected by alot of cold medicines to the point where i feel like my heart is going to beat out of my chest but idk does that mean there is something wrong with me? i dont want to blow it out of porportion but seriously if i do its that and pcos and i have to go back to the eye doctor because THEY thought i might have glaucoma i feel like an OLD LADY

I've never heard of heart conditions or glaucoma being related to PCOS -- more likely heredity

It's not the PCOS directly it's the insulin resistance which is caused by PCOS and I have high triglycerides r/t IR d/t PCOS you can research it!

Glaucoma is an hereditary condition. Both my mother and grandmother had it, so I have to be tested regularly.

PCOS puts you at high risk for Metabolic Syndrome. Metabolic syndrome is a name for a group of risk factors that occur together and increase the risk for high blood pressure, coronary artery disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes. So yes, PCOS is associated with heart conditions.
