I have to go back to the dr on Monday to go over the blood work results from today’s blood work. The though is that my thyroid is the problem. It was enlarged today. My symptoms that were bothering me the most right now are that I’m tingling all over, the worst though is in my face. It feels like my body is numb/ or like it all feel asleep, like the pins and needles when a hand or feet falls asleep. On top of that my stomach is always upset or just not functioning right in some way or another. I’ve lost 26 lbs since having the baby and while that is good the dr thought that that is quite a quick weight loss even for just having a baby, or esp. for just having a baby. There are other symptoms but Boaz needs me, just wanted to update some. If it’s not thyroid issue’s I’ll have to go back to the neurologist. Chances are though it’s thyroid related as my mother and all of her sisters and even my grandmom I think have thyroid issues. My mom developed her problems after having my brother. I was thinking the other day that it’s suprising I havent gotten it yet. So I’ve escaped the diabetes but who knows what is going to happen now with this other stuff. On top of already feeling bad, my body decided that since Boaz is sleeping through the night and heck it’s been how long since I had a normal “cycle” (trying to be nice for the male readers) that today would be the day to slam me w/ symptoms I’ve avoided for 13 months now…..blah! Not to mention this was after I took a pregnancy test this morning so when I went to the dr and they asked if there was a chance that I could be pregnant I could confidently answer them, what a waste of a test! 😉 Sad part is Dean was kind of bummed about the negative test. Crazy man! It’s one of those days and I just want to crawl in bed and cry and sleep…..but there’s a cake to be made and housework to be done…..maybe Sunday I can rest. Did I mention I wasnt able to sleep last night because this “tingling” feeling was annoying and I was kind of stressed about the whole idea of new and different health problems. I just cant get a break. My body hates me.
hey this is interesting, I didnt get pseudo tumor symptoms as bad until my third trimester of pregnancy w/ Caleb, when I was diagnosed w/ diabetes and then started drinking diet soda. A year after Caleb I was diagnosed w/ PTC(pseudo tumor) . I still drink diet soda and still get PTC symptoms…hmmm….makes me wonder. but if I give up diet soda I’ll have to drink just water as I wont drink sodas w/ sugar. man that sucks. Guess I’ll stick w/ the diet soda for now. But that article would prove my MIL right who is always warning me about artificial sweetners. oh well. I just cant get a break….limit your sugar but dont use artificial sweetners. Eat healthier….but fruits contain more sugar that my body doesnt handle well. ok so eat more veggies….nope that kills my irritable stomach. Guess point is I just should stop eating all together. Sorry for rambling on, like I said I’ve had a crazy day….and I’m kind of bummed about things…
