So we had my follow up appointment with Royal Women's last week. I was really looking forward to hearing what they found out. I had already gotten a letter from then saying that my Vitamin D levels were low...which is really crazy because the milk I have drank my whole life has always been Vitamin D infused...but the doc said that it can still happen...esp since I cover up all the time, even in the summer. So I have to start taking a supplement. They said my paths were all fine...my hemoglobin was good considering...the only things they were worried about, my cholesterol was borderline...the bad cholesterol was alright but they said I didn't have enough good cholesterol...so it looks like more oatmeal for me lol and I am insulin resistant. So I have to take a pill called Metaformin at night....that should help my body absord insulin a bit better, and of course I have to continue to loose weight. I go back in 3 months time and see everyone again. And by then they would like it if I had lost 3 kilos. So we will see how we go. I also asked why I was bleeding so much and they said they aren't 100% sure but that it seemed that since my ovaries weren't telling my uterus to shed the lining, and hadn't for so long, that the uterus just took it upon itself to shed the lining, but that once it did that, there was nothing there to send the message to stop...so it just kept going and going...she called it something but I can't remember what she said. So anyways! long story short is that now it is all up to me to loose some weight and see if my ovaries stimulate themselves back into a cycle, or if that doesn't happen then they can give me medicine and what not to help us have a child, but I have to be under a certain weight to receive the medication. So now it is just up to me...talk about a bit of pressure. I hope I can do it!
