Expectant Mommy
It's been awhile..I hope everyone is doing well. Doing ok here....I think I'm experiencing a return of my endo. For the past two months, I've been having severe tailbone pain. At first they thought it was a pilonidal cyst, then they decided it was from me sitting long hours at my new job.....well...the pain just kept getting worse...so they decided to do a CT scan. In the time I was waiting to have the CT done...I started having abdominal pain, low back pain, nausea, and very sore breasts. I finally had the CT on thursday...and it showed a right ovarian cyst...most likely an endometrioma. Bahhhhhhhhhh......it seemed like things were going fairly well...now my symptoms came back like gangbusters. My regular doc told me to make an appt with my gyn. I called over there and he is booked until September. I guess I"m going to have to call the gyn triage nurse there on Monday and see what they can do about getting me in sooner. It has been really depressing...having a return of sx.....but I guess I knew it would happen eventually. I am in so much pain most of the time now.....it makes working and caring for little man difficult at times. So..we'll see. What's the current treatment standard for endometrioma's these days? I guess I've never had one.....regular cysts sure...but not an endometrioma. I know they usually don't go away on their own. I suppose lupron or bcp's may keep it from enlarging perhaps but isn't surgical excision the only true way to get rid of it? Great...bahhh again. Otherwise..things are going well. Cooper is growing like a weed...he is almost 7 months old already...I can't believe it!!! He's almost crawling now, loves his stage 2 foods, and is always smiling. He's our whole world....he is so awesome!! I will include some pics if I remember how to do it. The little boy in the pic with Coop is Cole..(Coop's God Bro), the gal in the next photo is one of my best friends and Coops God Mommy, the last pic is Coop with his Girlfriend Anaka . Ok...better run....I'm going to catch a quick nap before it's Coop's feeding time again..lol. Hope all is well with everyone....I miss you all a lot. And yes...I am worried about Sue too!!!!!! I see my Birthday is still up from last July...yeeek!! It will be here again shortly.... Luv ya, Liv [img] [/img] [img] [/img] [img] [/img] [img] [/img]
