My little superstar...
I have written before about the health issues I have been experiencing. Well, I had a battery of blood tests run as well as an abdominal ultra sound. My bloodtests all came back clear - no heart issues. Good cholesterol ratio. The one weird thing is that the bloodtest for my kidneys has come back twice saying I have mild damage. I have no other symptoms, so we are going to keep an eye on it. My ultrasound showed two gallstones, which means I have to have my gallbladder out. So, I have been referred to a surgeon and am now just waiting to hear back about dates. I am a little worried about the surgery, although it can be done laproscopically. It means I will be out of commission for at least a week. And, I won't be able to care for Little G in the same way. My Mom has offered to help out, but she can't stay with us as we don't have a guest room. It may mean that we go to my parents' place while I recover. I am sure it will work itself out.
I hadn't had too many problems with my gallbladder that I recognized - 3 major attacks over the last year. Now it is apparent, that a lot of the uncomfortableness I have been experiencing is coming from it.
Oh, and the Dr. said I must have it out before getting pregnant again. Good thing we've pushed the FET back to next January.

Aw, your baby girl is adorable!
Good luck with the gallbladder surgery. I guess at least it's good that they found a reason for your symptoms and it's something that can be fixed.
I want to have my blood tests done also. I think my thyroid may have gone on the lazy side. I'm glad you found the cause of your problems, once that's sorted out you'll be a new woman!
Oh, and I'm two days away from celebrating the "thawing of the penguin!"
Look at that cutie pie!
Not fun on the gallbladder news. Ugh. I'm looking at another lap later this summer. Maybe we can be laid up together. (-;
Aargh, I'm so sorry to hear about the gall bladder surgery! I think it must be coming a more common problem - I've had three friends require the surgery in the last few years. :( But they've all felt tons better once it was over, so I'm hoping the same for you! Hope the healing time is short, easy and quick!
Baby Girl is just too adorable! :)
