On January 19, 2010, I wrote about my miscarriage.

On May 12, 2010, I wrote about how I thought I was pregnant...but I wasn't.

Yesterday, on July 21, 2010, I had out-patient surgery.  It was the surgery that I should have had in January.

Seven months is a long time to be on this roller coaster of knowing that something is not right. 

So what's the moral of this story?

If your doctor doesn't hear you when you say that there is something wrong...FIND A NEW DOCTOR.  Ladies (and gentlemen), you know your body better than anyone else on this planet.  Listen to it.  Be persistent.

My doctor apparently found a few polyps (or something...I am not even sure) that he sent off to pathology.  This is good because it means that there is a logical explanation to the symptoms that I have been having since January.

I ask for your prayers.  Please pray that the pathology report comes back normal.  Please pray that the surgery yesterday fixes all that was wrong.

My gut tells me that things will be normal...but still. 

Even though all of this could have (and should have) been corrected in January, I know that God had a reason for this to happen.  I put my trust in Him. 

I am ready for moving on!

Oh Erin - Sending lots of prayers for plenty of good news.

Good for you for listening to your gut. You're correct - something not enough of us practice.

I am praying for you!!!! You are absolutely right though.... We know when something is not right. Your doctor needs to listen to you. I had a similar experience. I KNEW I was pregnant but none of the tests came back positive. The Doctor wouldn't listen to me that something was wrong, so I stopped going in and just put up with the symptoms. A month later I had a miscarriage, and it was determined that I was 12 weeks pregnant!!
Praying for you to feel your body is normal again!

Praying for you Erin. I hope this surgery helps solve the problem. And you are so right...go with your gut and if that doctor will not listen find one who will. I went through that last year and feel very confident with my primary and specialist.

Hugs!

I am a work in progress. My life has been far from perfect but I believe that God is using my experiences and my mistakes to reach other people. The Bible is full of examples where the imperfect people were part of God’s perfect plan. So as this blog unfolds, you will learn how I fell down, why I fell down and why I should probably still be down. But you will also see that God is the ultimate redeemer and He loves with an unfailing love. Along the way, He has blessed me with a beautiful daughter and the best husband on the planet (yes, in that order). We currently live in beautiful North Carolina surrounded by friends and family. Since I am only 31, I have a feeling that this story is far from over...
