Hi everyone!!
I am just now getting on this fun little bandwagon lol.
So far I have:
Hyper thyroidism (supposedly I have goiters on my thyroid & NOT Graves or hashimotos as I was earlier diagnosed with lol)
Type 2 Diabetes
Neuropathy in my legs/feet
PCOS...
Pcos is my newest bundle of joy.
We have been trying to get pregnant since 05 (it took me 3 years to get pregnant with my last son who was born in 05) Everyone pawned it off to the hyperthyroid... and then diabetes came about. and then they said I have PCOS & can not have any more kids till I lose weight... which I cant do until I get rid of my thyroid. lol. lovely little circle of doom huh?
But with God all things are possible so I am hanging on to the fact that once I get rid of my thyroid (I am having a total thyoridectomy) I will be able to FINALLY lose weight, which will get rid (in theory) of my diabetes & my PCOS...
So that is me. I guess I am not seeing this as bad as I should... I have read a few of the posts here & I feel bad because I am not upset about this... I think I am MORE Upset being told I cant have any more kids.. we want one more. so that KILLS me... But I guess since the doc told me I can get rid of this once I lose weight.. maybe I am too hopeful? Is it a false hope?
He put me on generic Provera for 7 days. (I have had a period since august 2008) But so far it isnt doing anything lol. I started it on 2/21... The only thing I have noticed different so far is on 2/22 at church.. I broke down over nothing ... lol. that was fun.
feel free to say hello or whatever. I will try to remember to check in lol. so feel free to pm me or whatever if you want to talk :-)
