Doctor Month

It seems that this month is turning out to be doctor month.

I had my appointment with my Primary Care Physician after having another urine analysis and CT scan, and he said that the urine showed a little bacteria which means I just needed a little more antibiotic, which I have already finished, and he said my kidney looks back to normal, no more of it being swollen. So he thinks that I should be all better from everything and that is wonderful news, because it has been way too long that I have been dealing with this.

I also went to see my Rheumatologist and he said I am doing well, but I had to get labs done yesterday because my iron levels were low and they aren't sure if it is because of the miscarriage or if I am more anemic that I have been. I have been taking iron pills and if my blood works comes back Monday and my iron is still low, I will just continue taking the iron, if not, then no more of that pill.

I also saw my OB/GYN the other day and she said there is no scarring from the miscarriage and the D&C I had, and the only thing she found was a few cysts in each breast, which she isn't too concerned about, especially since my mom has them too and so do my grandma's, but she is sending me to get an ultrasound just to make sure. I have had them for years, so I am not too worried about it, but it is really good that she is taking the safe approach to make sure. So I will be going back to her next month to get the results since I couldn't get into an ultrasound until next month, but I will be back at her office at the end of the month to get another shot of my Depo birth control shot.

So that has been my exciting doctor news. I am quite tired of doctors, but it is good to finally be getting checked out and getting a clean bill of health after all this is over. After being sick for so long, it is so nice to be feeling well again and going about life as normal.
