My Mood: Points: 722.61 Bank: 0.00 Total Points: 722.61 | Hi all... Hi,
My name is Tiffany and I was diagnosed with PCOS on 5/20/08. However, I am a RN and suspected that I had this long before the confirmation. After blood tests, transvag u/s, and hysteroscopy with endometrial biopsy, my Dr. put me on Metformin-1500 mg, Provera 10 mg for 10 days, and Clomid to start the 3rd day of my cycle. Today is my 7th day on the Provera, so I hope that I am on my way to the baby that we have been TTC for 5 years.
I don't really know how to feel. I have been wondering and crying and praying about the baby of my dreams for so long, that I am terrified that this won't work. As I type this the pain of all those BFN and wainting and hoping and then nothing is welling up inside.
I'm not really sure what to expect. I don't want to get my hopes up, but I keep thinking, what if this works, what if I actually get pregnant? Then on the flip side, I am terrified that this will end exactly as every month has for the past 5 years. I don't really know what I am looking for here, except maybe someone that understands. My DH is great, he has held me through every disappointment and negative HPT, but he doesn't get it. I feel broken. mentally and physically, not to mention that I feel robbed that everyone around me seems to be coming up pregnant, while i remain barren. I don't know. I guess I am just down right now.
Anyway, I am sorry to be so negative and depressing, I am just scared and sad and tired of this roller coaster of emotions. Maybe this time right? All we can do and wait and pray. Thanks for letting me rant.
Tiffany |

Love the name!
I'm new to the site, too. While I can't relate to TTC and wanting a child, I can relate to that "broken" feeling. I am just so sick of feeling yucky all the time, feeling hindered both physically and emotionally. I thought for the longest time that it was all my bipolar illness standing in my way, but the more research and reading I do, and the more tests I have done, the more I realize that there are intricacies to my endocrine and reproductive systems that may explain more than I had thought.
It's kind of mind-boggling, really, how interconnected the body systems are. But, I digress.
I just wanted to let you know you aren't alone in feeling that way, and as a fellow newbie, welcome you to the site!
Cheers,
K |
