Finally got into the rheumatologist to get my crazy unhealthy body checked out. Needless to say I was poked, prodded, blood drawn and even xrayed. I felt like a pin cushion by the time I was done. Thankfully, DJ was there with me through the thick and thin of it all.
Fast forward a week and a half. They called about my Xray results. Seems I have degenerative arthritis(Osteoarthritis) in my knees, along with misaligned kneecaps. I am being sent for physical therapy. Fun.fun.f.u.n. Right?!
Then today they called with the bloodwork concerning my thyroid levels. As always, my thyroid is out of wack and they are concerned about it and mentioned something about enlarged thyroid and nodules. So I am off to get an ultrasound. Should I panic yet? Inside I am. Outside I am trying to stay calm. Although the tears you see today are just from sheer frustration of my body nonstop hurting, my migraines never ending, and the unknowing of wtf is wrong with my body.
My biggest obstacle that has been haunting me forever is my weight. Its finally starting to rear its ugly head and show many reasons why I need to lose it. Bottom line, I am getting the gastric bypass surgery. Hubby and I discussed it again, and its something I have to do for myself, my health, and my well being. So here I go again on this massive roller coaster, but yet, this time I know when to hold on, and when to just scream my brains out.
