Longhorns and Long Waits :(

Well, I'm back in Texas! Just set up my new Doctor. Turns out the next available time to get me in is late April! And thats just to meet with my PCM. So its 2 months waiting for my PCM, probably  a week waiting for the referral to a GYN, who knows how long til I get in to the GYN and then I have to pray they will approve me for the Surgery...which will be more waiting til I get that!

Its funny, you tell "doctors" that you have a stabbing knife like pain in your pelvic/abdominal area for 5 years (everyday) and now its cramping in my lower chest and they say okay see ya in a couple month!!
If I didnt just want to get rid of this so bad I would say F them at this point and im officially done! I have had it!

Back to Square One :(

So, the U/S came back normal. I know this doesnt mean much because of all the people I've heard from that had the same results but found something through surgery. I will be getting a new GYN in the next couple of weeks and Im going to ask for the Laparoscopy! I just hope and pray that will give me the answers I need.
Not much to write today, Im beyond frustrated and in the most pain I've ever been in.

Todays The Day! Fingers Crossed!

I am going in for my U/S tonight and Im pretty anxious about it. On one hand Im a little nervous for something to show up but on the other hand it would finally show the doctors that im not crazy :)

I stopped taking the Nexium, after 5 day of being on it, because it wasnt making a difference in any of my symptoms. The pain in my lower sternum/upper abdomen has turned into a cramping and sharp pains like pins and needles. Looking more into it I realized its the area where my kidneys are, which worries me a little along with everything else...

Hopefully my U/S will give me some answers! Should have the results within a couple days!

Good News...?

So, the doctor prescribed Nexium for the stabbing pain in my chest and I have been on it for three days now. On the upside, I havent had much of the stabbing pain(although it had mostly stopped before actually taking the meds) but it now feels like a heavier pressure on my chest making it a little difficult to breath at times. I dont know if this medication is actually working. I though it was supposed to take all of that away (if it truly was related to acid reflux). I need to look more into this!
Downside, the nausea is worse, the cramps are...well they're always bad, and my headaches wont go away!

Another upside though... I have the most precious, stubborn, crazy, sweet, goofy daughter in the world and she always keeps me smiling :) When im feeling down she does the most random things, like last-night... She got an empty CD case, came over to me, smushed it over her mouth and nose and made the silliest faces at me!!! She's hilarious, and the most important thing to me!
