My day(results, sort of)


I got the results of my hcg this morning and it was zero. While that was good news, the symptoms I continue to have warranted a visit to the doctor...er...nurse practitioner(not a fan). I went in, we discussed symptoms and options, she scheduled more blood work and ordered an ultrasound. Don't know if I am dealing with a fibroid, a cyst or other. I will keep you posted. Nothing conclusive but there is pain so that can't be a good sign. After being stuck a few times(deep veins) I got the photo above as a reward for not crying and staying still while they drew blood. Kinda sums up my day and now that it's done, it's borderline humorous. Not giving up baby hope, I prayed, hope is alive and well and I'm going to continue to get healthy and lose weight. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. I should raffle off my band aid ;)

LOL.

I'd have said, "Yeaaaah, you know what? It'll stop bleeding soon. You think I'm walking out of here advertising Gardasil? Get bent."

I think the bandaid is a PERFECT representaion of the "fix" promised by the Gardasil people. Heehee, "just give em a shot...put a bandaid on the problem"!!!!!

That's disgusting! It didn't dawn on me at first that was a bandaid.

Un-frickin' believable...
