We were all together for X-mas eve and it was so nice to have my sisters back. So I am very blessed to have such a warm understanding family.


I am also still going through yet another health crisis. I went to my gyno and she has found out that I am still anemic and there is something going on with my thyroid. I had a biopsy done on Wed and will have a ultrasound done next week. I have been bleeding for over a month now (sorry for being so graphic) and we are trying to pin it down as to why. I have been so tired and short of breath and thought I just needed to lose more weight and exercise but since I was so tired exercise was the last thing on my mind. Hopefully this will all get straightened out soon.

Nancy, what a wonderful story to read. See what a difference one person can have on another. I always perceived you as being kind and considerate and now it is confirmed. How is your health doing now? I can't remember if you posted the results of your MRI's. What about this wind yesterday. I lost a fence and the fabric cover on my gazebo. I think I may have lost a palm tree but I will wait and see on that one. I saw the temps and wind speed where you are and was wondering if you were home yet.

Well I have written another long post so I better stop now. I will catch up some more later...Sue
Hi Snoozie,
We have been chatting alot about forgiveness on this site lately. I hope that you taking the first step has made you feel better. It isn't always easy but it can feel great.
I hope that your docs find out what is going on with you. I don't know your age but I had a total hyster at 39 due to some of the things you have mentioned.
They have a procedure now called an ablation. If you are too young for a hyster this procedure is like a high-tech D&C. I know that it is a minimally invasive surgery and have also heard that it gets great results.
Thyroid problems are so common these days, don't know why. Half the people in my city are either hyper/hypothyroid.
Prayers to you for a positive test results.
Judy

Thanks Judy, My doc was talking to me about a D&C and also the ablation. She said she has had some very good results with other patients. Oh by the way I am 43. I was talking to my daughter who is 16 about all of this going on because she also suffers from hard periods. It was then I remembered taking my mom to get a D&C when I was 16. I have often said that I am following my mothers footsteps Thanks for the good thoughts and prayers...Sue

Default Snoozie~

I had 3 D&C's, so one may not be the cure all. This is kinda nornal at your age. I too can understand your daugher's problems. I cramped almost all threw the years. Then when I went threw the change I didn't have no problems except for the D&C's. I did blame a certain medicine for mine, cause the surgery didn't help. I quit the medicine and never had anymore problems.

Now how strange is this! The title of this thread is "My Favorite Gift", and we somehow get on Hysty's and "the change", etc. Let me tell you SuzieQ, when I had my hysty at your age, IT WAS MY FAVORITE GIFT! Ha Ha
