Fibroids, anyone?

Well it appears that I have a pretty large amount of fibroids--a couple that are quite large. I'll know tomorrow what the plan is, but he was pretty upfront with me--it's going to have to be yanked. Fine with me. Because of my history, I was pretty nervous (ok freaked) about anything being done and I was brutally honest with him. Because he did a biopsy--just to rule out anything--I'm on cipro twice a day. Good--prep me for surgery. I, quite honestly, don't have time for this. I used up alot of my sick/vacation time with the adoption and I had enough left for Chewie's surgery. Now, I'll have to figure out a way around that--probably with a nasty schedule of 6 days in a row--but you do what you have to do. I'm going to bust my ass to get back to work after this. No pity party time for me--kids start school soon, work is starting up with going completely computer and there is too much going on here at home.
Yes, and to top it all off, I got home, walked in and started sniffing. Yes, one of the dogs took a huge (I mean HUGE) crap all over Julia's room!!!! That's always nice to come home to.

You are tooo funny!! Getting those labs before any lay person would:) Sounds like me. Fibroids suck. I had one the last time they did an ultrasound on me for fertility but whatever I've been doing seems to have stopped the mega blood...take it the new radiology technique wouldn't work for these versus the big H? I'd check into it. Jusr my 2 cents...

Oh Janiece!!! YUCK doesn't seem like the right word, but it's what I'm going with - YUCK. It stinks to be sick and worse to have the vacation time planned out and find out it's not going to work. Know I'll be praying for you, whatever the doctor decides to do!

I hope some time soon you'll be able to use your vacation days for something like, say, a vacation.
Get better soon!!!!!!!
