I have always been healthy. Never ate the best, but was aware I need to workout and take care of myself. When I noticed my body wasn't like it should be, I went to the doctor about a month ago. I wasn't have a monthly period like I should. My visit was not good, I was told if I don't have a period it'll be hard to have kids. I cried leaving the office and went down the lab where they poked me 5 times trying to get blood for lots of tests. The whole time I'm crying because the doctor just shot down my hopes of having kids. I wait a month and went back in last Friday to get all the test results. Everything came back negative, expect one horomone level was really high which shouldn't be. Turns out to be too much prolactin. Since everything else came back negative expect this level the doctor thinks the only thing that can cause this is a growth on my pituilary gland in my brain. The growth is not hurting me in any way expect jacking up my hormones. I go in for an MRI on the 17th to find out for sure that is what it is. We were told as soon as we want to start trying to have kids to call the doctor to get on clomid to try for 6 months to see if we can get pregnant. For now I'm not scared, mad or sad I'm cool with this growth for now. If this is my only health problem I'll take it, I could be so much more worse off. I consider myself lucky right now. If we can't get pregnant within about 2 years then we'll spend a year saving up for adpotion. I decided to blog about all of this, and our upcoming experiences as I can type much faster then I can write in my actual journal, so for now blogging it is. I won't be holding anything back, as I want to remember how I'm feeling and everything going on.

So we'll see how life goes, but for now we're focusing on the temple, we get to be sealed in March!!
Our focus is on the temple, and knowing that this has been my plan since the very day I made the decision to come down to this earth.
Can't wait to be sealed for all time and eternity to this handsome man. He's the best!
you will love your decision to write everything as you go. It has been such a blessing for me to have my thoughts to look back on and I know someday it will help someone else. And yes typing is so much faster than writing. Good luck and you know I am here for you
