When Brad and I got up this morning – It was raining! Brad left, I ate breakfast then started to get ready for my appointment. Took a bath, got Katie up, fed, let her do her potty business then we had about almost 30 minutes to wait so I let her watch cartoons before my church friend arrived!!! We all loaded up and headed out. We headed towards our destination and “thought” we got a little lost…. we were in the right area but didn’t know exactly WHERE the Doc’s office was so I called them and we had actually already went past the office, turned around and were just looking so we went back and found it!!! We all came into the waiting room and I filled out paperwork. My church friend decided to take her daughter and Katie back out to the car to try to entertain them there while I waited for and had my appointment. I had to wait… maybe 15 more minutes? Then I got called back, woot.
They took a urine sample, weight, blood pressure, iron count… everything was fine. Went to a room where the nurse asked me the usual standard questions to put on my file. The Doc came in, I told her my situation and story then she left so I could undress and get ready for my exam. Got that over with then we talked more and from what I had told her she wanted to take some blood to test for lupus, check out my thyroid, and check certain hormones for the PCOS and see what we get. She left, I got dressed then went to the lab to get the blood drawn….. then I was DONE! They said it’ll be about a week for the results and I am so eager! OH and I told her that If the PCOS hormones are acting up again, I would like to go back on Metformin since it helped me so much last time. I feel like it is my PCOS going crazy again but I guess we’ll have to wait and see.
We left then my church friend dropped us off! I really enjoyed hanging out with her and her daughter and REALLY appreciate that she took the time to take me. I fixed our lunches then Katie went down for nap. Called Mom to tell her about the appointment then decided to lay down myself. OH and my tooth/gums have still been hurting today and It was reallllllllllllly causing me pain when I got home so I finally found the orajel and put some on then took a nap. I have a *tiny* bit of pain right now but nothing like it was. Sigh…. we looked at our insurance benefits and we DON’T currently have dental… boooooo. Will have to see about getting on some sort of dental plan soon so I can get my teeth sorted atleast a bit.
This evening I worked on some college and ate dinner. I haven’t been too tired today or even tonight so that’s good. Can’t wait to eat my usual yummy dessert. I’m feeling hopeful and thankful…..
