Doctors

I have seen my share of doctors the past year and a half. I went today to see about my chest pain. I was half wondering if I had developed a severe case of heartburn since it wasn't lung or heart related. Nope, I found out the pain is most likely inflamed cartilage around my ribcage. Fun, so the best I can do is take it easy, no heavy lifting, and some anti-inflammatory drugs. Blah.

I mentioned I have had some trouble going full-term on my pregnancies. As part of my thorough workup, the specialist Dr. wants me to have a hysteroscopy and clean out any potential problems from my uterus. It is basically a D&C procedure, but the Dr. will also check things out with a scope (mini camera). That is tomorrow morning. Pray for me, wish me luck, cross your fingers...etc etc.

If all goes well I can prepare for trying to get pregnant again. I just hope this chest pain goes away. How come it feels like my body is falling apart and I am only 31 years young? Man, if this is what my 30s are like, I hate to know what my 40s will be.

    Thanks ladies. Things did go well. The doctor said he didn't see anything, so it was just an annoying surgery, but I do have the peace of mind that I have done all that I can to have a successful pregnancy. I even went to the temple yesterday for extra blessings. Sorry, I feel like a drama queen lately. Things are quieting down now for sure.
