TTC update

August 12, 2007

I think that I talked about my upcoming surgury but if not than this is new info. I called the nurse this past week to find out when my surgery would be and she called me back and left a message on my voicemail letting me know that Oct 19th will be the day. I'm excited and scared at the same time. I've been praying that I would get pg on my own before than so I wouldn't have to go through this surgery but it's not looking that way.. In September I have to take a cycle of bcp which I have never done before in my life. I'm hoping that my left tube is the only tube that is damaged and that my right tube can be saved. One thing I have learned is that I know my body and for now on if I have a pain I won't be so quick to let the doctor's pass if off as nothing. For years I complained about a pain that I kept getting on my left side by my ovary, and the doctor's just kept saying that it was nothing but a muscle strain. I didn't feel comfort able with that because most of the time I had not done anything to strain a muscle and I know what muscle strain feels like but I didn't fight it. There were times that I couldn't lay down on my stomach or my left side because it would hurt so bad. it would take days for the pain to go away. Now I understand why. It's because of the cyst on my left side or at least what appears to be a cyst. Never once did any of those doctors do an ultrasound that would have shown the problem. I'm greatful that I know now and it's getting taken care of. I forgot to mention that Raymond is really attached to my mother now and he's been calling her everyday and he talks about her a lot. I'm glad because she treats him like he's always wanted his own mother to treat him. I think that this is a way that God is helping him heal from some childhood pain he had to go through. I've talked enough for now. Next week I'll post about the drama on my job.
