For those of you who always listen to my issues, I thought I'd update you. I went for my check-up last Friday. My doctor wants me to see an orthopaedic dr about my back. I've already set up that appt. She also wants me to go for a mammogram (just for the 2yr check) and to a cardiologist for a complete heart check since Dad died so young of a heart attack. I'm going to just try to deal with the pms and depression for now. I also need to get my blood sugar and cholesterol tested soon. Well, today, the dr called and said my pap was abnormal. It was also abnormal last year. Long story short is that I am going for a cone-biopsy in about 2 weeks. I figured this pap would come back funky. I'll keep you posted on that. Hopefully, it will come back as nothing. Thanks for all your advice and concern. I'm glad I have you guys to talk to!
I hope things get normal for you soon. Take care of your self, do as much as you can with what your doctor told you. I hope you have insurance. I am in jepordy of loosing my insurance (state)
You are in our prayer as well. Now, I am ignorant to this being that I have only been around for about a month. What is a cone-biopsy? I have never heard of this. Take care. Patty
Actually, I think it was a colpscopy or something like that. I don't think she said cone biopsy now. My sister had one of those but it involves taking a bigger biopsy. My biopsy will be a small one. Thank you for the prayers.
Missy, are you sure you want to let your depression go? Depression can make things seem so hopeless, and you have a lot to deal with. I'm sorry you have all this in your lap.
My depression is better. It tends to get worse at times. I think a lot of it is hormonal imbalance. I surely see more depression the week of PMS. I guess I simply put it on the backburner for now. My doctor is very pro-counseling and doesn't like medication. So, seeing how I don't have much time for the counseling I'll just have to use you guys as my listening ears if that is okay. I will say more to my dr if it gets worse though.
