updates on me!

Yesterday I saw a wonderful surgeon since I wasn't loving the treatment received with the other practice here in the area.   So we found out a bit of information yesterday very valuable stuff.  The radiology report is suspicious to the doctor just because of the hypervascularity of the ultrasound.  Again we won't know anything until I have the Fine Needle Biopsy done on July 8th.  The doctor also confirmed that I will have surgery regardless on this tumor because of the sheer size of it, its the size of a golf ball.  My vocal cords are not impaired at this time so thats a very good thing.  Im very raspy in the mornings and evenings and this is very normal, I have a dry cough and it can sometimes be very hard to swallow as well as the fatigue of my body being stressed out from this tumor.  The other lobe of my thyroid is just fine nothing else to report no hidden nodules or inflammation.
Depending on what this tumor is being malignant or benign will determine which surgery options are for me.  So my biopsy is next Friday July 8th, with the holiday weekend coming up this was the soonest I could get in.  Im kinda excited but thats the geek coming out in me I love biology anything and a cytologist will be in the room with me and my doctor when doing the fine needle biopsy.  They will take samples from a few areas of tissues on my neck and then we will be sent home after.  Hemotomas can happen so the few days after I will have to be resting.  I follow up with the doctor on July 13th, we will schedule surgery that day and go from there!  Writing this has helped me focus on whats important for me and my family right now!
As always thank you to all my wonderful family and friends who have given me great support over the weeks, to the people who have sent me the most random texts to make me smile, to the late night chats with friends who are exhausted themselves but know I just need to talk I appreciate this more than I could ever put into words!  Lets not forget about my amazing HUSBAND JONATHAN who deserves a gold medal, no matter what I need this fella always has my back from just checking on me randomly, to making dinner for us, to him understanding that CLEO THE PONY is a huge part of my life and going to the farm keeps  me sane, to just being there for anything that I may need even lets me have snacks in bed... its remarkable the bond we have, the vows you take when you get married you think yes for better or worse in sickness and health you never  know what they mean to you until you have something happen to you.  I love you babes, you're the cheese to my macaroni and your definitely the HOME TO MY DEPOT! ( unless you know us the home depot part you won't get )

Women Supporting Other Women

I wonder what this world would look like if all women supported other women instead of bashing them constantly?  Lately this has been on my mind because I see it happen frequently and Im not gonna lie I can act like this and be just at judgmental sometimes myself so theres no sugar coating there.  Women are a very intriguing breed if you will call it that, theres so many different sides to a womans personality. What I want to know is are we programmed to be so vicious all the time?  Am I overly sensitive to the world where I notice this and Im like can we please stop with the constant cut downs ladies.  I can't take it anymore.  The fact is this, be friends with women who you can support because they have the same goals/ values and morals as you, IF they don't then don't support them but also don't be fake about it.  We can all learn to love people from a distant if we truly want the best for them, sometimes as human beings morals goal values ect don't add up and t

How You Feel About Yourself is an Inside Job, Make Yourself a Priority

Recently Ive noticed more and more how I feel about myself.  Im loving the progress in the gym, I love my businesses, I have a life that is truly wonderful ( yes I have bad days just like everyone else ) but in general Im extremely happy and if Im not I try and fix things or work on them until my end goal is reached.  Ive started to notice that the more I take care of myself the better I feel.  I have a weakness for clothes they are expensive but there is nothing like a great pair of jeans and a swipe of mascara that doesn’t make me a happy girl just something about it turns my day around always.  So how do you celebrate yourself?  Do you allow yourself that one sweet treat?  Pay yourself compliments?  Buy yourself flowers or clothes what ever your vice is remember to celebrate you because theres only one of you, take the time for yourself on a weekly basis regardless of how others feel about it silly or not if its important to you, you will make this a practice in your life.  It does

This Led Us to Our Invitro- Fertilization and Frozen Embryo Transfer

So it has taken my husband and I 5 years to get to this point in our fertility journey.  During these last 5 years Ive been told that Im Bi Polar ( nah i just have resting bitch face and have no time for bullshit sorry that imnot overly smiley it doesnt mean anything ), Im Depressed ( nope just sarcastic by nature ), Im Anxious ( i really am anxious though ) and multiple other things from Doctors in the area and they even tried to give me all the PILLS in the WORLD.  As we all may or may not know my husband loves to research things!  So the first thing to research was the GOITER in my neck basically my thyroid blew up and the reason it blew up was because to be honest I wasn’t taking care of myself I was at the gym every morning at 5 am I worked out for 2 hours.  Though I know how to eat ( im a nutrionist ) I was told crazy things by PERSONAL TRAINERS  ( they don’t have degrees y’all ) stop eating carbs ect.  However I never stopped eating the things I wanted, but all that working out
