(day8)

Quick update on my CD:: I made it to day 128 :( but AF came 8 days ago! GO OVARIES!!
I am SO SO SO sorry for not posting anything recently. Things have been crazier than expected.
I went to the dentist and now I have an appointment to have my wisdom teeth cut out in a couple of weeks.
I went to my new OB a couple of weeks ago! I love him! He and his staff are so great.
After explaining to him after a very long cycle and the other symptoms, he agreed that it sounds like PCOS. He also seemed to have something else in mind, but being afraid that it was something a little more serious then I could imagine, I didnt ask for more details. He had me go in to do blood work the next day to do a blood glucose and even after fasting for 12 hrs, the initial prick read 120, and being that its not supposed to be over 90ish, they called my dr. He said to go ahead with the test to see what the other numbers read. I cant quote what they were, but I know it was still elevated. After my phone call telling me that I needed to go to my family dr to see about how he wanted to treat my alleged diabetes, I got no help from my family doctor. I told him I couldnt quote for sure the test results and somehow he didnt get the results my OB faxed to his office. He told me that he wasnt sure I am diabetic so he wanted to do another test (dont recall the name) and it would give us a for sure yes or no. I explained to him that my OB and I think its PCOS and she nodded and then asked if I would want to participate in a sleep study cause he thinks my sugar is elevated because I have sleep apnea. I dont agree with my dr because I asked him if my sugar could be slightly elevated because of the PCOS and not enough for diabetes, and he said yes. If this seems to be the problem, why are we fishing for another diagnosis? I'm going to talk to my OB to see if my FD is on a good track. If he thinks he's a quack, I'll be searching for a new one.
I have an ultrasound on my birthday next month to see if I have the cysts that generally come with PCOS. After this, I will go in to see my OB again and if I have cysts, we will talk about treatment for PCOS. I really had hoped my FD would have given me Metformin but he didnt, so maybe my OB will find it fit for me.
As far as starting a Vlog to accompany this Blog, I plan to do so once I am on a medication. I think thats a good goal for me to get a webcam as well lol.
(oh yea! and I have put all of my baby stuff on craigslist.org and I'm hoping for a buyer very soon. Husband says that we can always buy new for the second baby, like we did with our first.)
