Yesterday I had an appointment and it went pretty well. My pfts dropped 9% from 90 to 81 and from looking at the history, I was at 82% April 20th of last year, so Im back to where I was but I will get them back up. This time I didnt try like I usually do, I blew as hard as I could but never asked to redo a test and I always do, I'll do them like 2 or 3 times over, but only once this time, I felt that maybe I should of redone the first one, I think from now Im going to always redo the first one cause it is probably worst one.

Plus if any of you remember my last post was about me not feeling good and I think because of me being sick is why they were down a little and I think I still have a tiny bit of conjestion down deep inside. The doc said my lungs sounded clear too! Im not worried about my pfts being down, cause I know Ill get them back up.

My wieght, lol thats a joke, I gained 3pds now Im 146. I keep gaining what the heck but right now I dont care cause i have bigger plans for my weight gain! Which is a good thing.

I asked the doc about me getting pregnant and what he thought and he said he was all for it, yay!! We talked a little bit about that, he said there is a ob/gyn doctor across the street from his office that is a good doc, and that his other patients that has had him didnt complain so when Im ready to start a family I know that there is a good doctor waiting for me to take good care of me and my baby.

He didnt change anything to my regimen so that is all the same. All in all I had a good appointment.

you are a smart girl to feel good about your healthy weight. I don't remember how tall you are. My weight of 127 lbs. at 5'3" has been an absolute blessing to my pregnancy. Should you get sick during pregnancy and drop a few pounds you won't worry as much and if you are like me and find it difficult to gain weight you at least won't have to also make up for entering the pregnancy underweight. I think you are approaching the getting pregnant thing really maturely and would be glad to offer you any advice/answer to questions as they might arise. 8% does seem like a big drop. When do you go back for a re-check? I've been meaning to ask you how often do you go to clinic...it seems very often even when you are well...interesting.

Im 5 ft tall and I go to clinic every 2 months. They want to stay on top of everything, if I didnt have a say so the doc would have me come back every month, I think all or most of his patients see him every month. I go back to the docs in June. Thank you Lauren for the offer, I will most diffanatley go to you if I have any questions pertaining pregnancy. I think my husband and I are going to wait until June before we start trying, maybe May if I can talk him into it. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">
