All day I thought about cancelling. I didn't have it in my heart to go to the OB today. It took all the strength I had left to go, but since I'm at a high-risk for endometrial cancer, I know that I need to have a check-up every 6 months.
I switched OB's - I'm going to Dr. K - he's been highly recommended. I found out today that he deals with infertility also. He doesn't want any labs done, instead he wants a saliva test. He says that this type of test more accurately reads one's hormone levels.
I'm NOT for one second getting my hopes up.....they've been dashed enough this year. However, it'll be nice to get some answers that, in the past, have been dealt with by medicating me with BCPs. Birth control is a band-aid to a serious problem that needs to be fixed. I'm working on ME for now. I'm worrying about my health and not worrying about the family that we can't start. And I feel pretty good about it.
