I went to the "doctor" today. My PCM is a Physician's Assistant hence the quotes. I hate this woman. I have been to her probably once or twice every six months since we have been here, I don't go to the doctor much. Every time I am there she is rude, bitchy, and rushes me out. I am finally ready to complain about her and get a new PCM.
I went in because of my out of control allergies, I have been miserable. I now have 4 medications to take for my allergies, Flonase, Singular, Allegra, and Patanol. And then for good measure, since I have been a big ball of nerves lately, I have decided to go back on Welbutrin. I took it for about a year when we were in hell and I want to prevent myself from spiralling out of control. I am not completly feeling hopeless yet, but I prefer not to get to that point and take care of it now.
In other health news since I am sharing way TMI anyways. Lilly may have premature adrenarche, basically she has hair growth in her armpits and major BO already. Not normal for her age, especially since the BO has been going on for over 2 years. Sometime in July she has to go see an Endocrinologist. They will do a full blood work up and possibly a bone scan to be sure her bones are growing at a normal rate. Nothing in life is simple or easy, at least not in my life.
For the next year you can expect big ups and downs from me. I work that way. I try not to feel sorry for myself every day and I won't. But right now, I am feeling really badly. The deadline is near and I am not pleased. I am actually terrified.

i hate "doctors" and doctors like that... don't freakin' rush me... especially b/c most times you have had to wait for 12 hrs in a waiting room to see them anyway.. ugh!! i hope you at least start to feel better with all the allergy meds. is it that your allergies are that bad that they gave you that many to take or just to see which one will work the best??? that seems like an awful lot to take at one time.
as far as the wellbutrin goes... good for you to take care of yourself before things get hairy. no sense in being miserable and stressed if you can prevent it. :) i know things will be tough for you... no doubt... i don't know anyone that wouldn't think it would be easy to be a single parent and miss your spouse... but i know you are a GREAT mom so you will do okay. you just have to worry about you some more, and not be so tough on the outside. it's okay to not always be strong. and even if you feel like you can't show it to your kids and your family... you have all of us out here in blogger world right by your side to support you. :)
as for Lilly. that stinks... no pun intended... seriously I wouldn't make jokes about your daughter. my friend had something similar with her daughter, actually my God-daughter. She also had lumps forming under her nipples, like the beginning of getting breasts, but she was ONLY 3 yrs old. She didn't have any hair growth but she did have slight BO and also some discharge from her vagina, once in a while. They thought it might be something hormonal, she saw a specialist and had full blood work up and some other things tested and they said she was okay. She hasn't changed much... she will be 5 in Sept and things are okay still, thank God. So I hope that you get the same results with Lilly... that everything is okay. :) I'll be thinking of you and her.
take care of yourself!!!

and extra (((((((((((HUGS)))))))))))
All of the allergy meds are to be taken together, mine are really bad in the spring and summer. One is an eyedrop, one a nasal spray, then the other two are pills that work in different ways with each other.
Thanks for the good thoughts coming our way.
:)
wow!! that is a LOT of stuff going on with your body for allergies... but i really hope they all kick in soon.
me... i would totally mess it all up and put the eye drops up my nose and try to puff the nasal spray... lol just kidding... but that is a lot of stuff to remember & take.
the good thoughts, well wishes, and prayers are all coming your way still... anytime. :)
(((((((((HUGS)))))))))))))
