Hi Everyone,
I really need some support right now so I turn to the people that would understand the most. My husband and I had decided a month ago to consider the fost-adopt program instead of getting all stressed out about pregnancy. My health is very good, but after a year of trying, we thought maybe it's time to change our course. We still are trying but not doing any ovulation kits, cycle monitering, or mucinex/robitussin. Then again, we never did. We just thought we'd fost-adopt and if we conceived - wonderful.
Well, I was having for the past few months some lower left quadrant pain. Then, one week before my period, I was having a lot of back pain, discomfort with sex and urination. Also, I was having some nausea with maybe one episode of vomiting. I decided I better see a GYN doc.
So two weeks ago, I went for an annual PAP and pelvic. Also yesterday I had an ultrasound. The Pap came back normal. But the ultrasound revealed almost a 2" ovarian cyst on the left ovary. They tech told me that I will probably have to go on the pill again to disolve it. They said that at 2" they have to act. My period is due in 4 days. They want to wait about 2 weeks then repeat the ultrasound to see if it disolved (which they doubt). If not, I'll be on the pill again.
I'm so down about it. I knew it. I have a history of a left ovarian cyst. That's why I was put on the pill at 13 years old. I was on the off for 3 years, before they just left me on it. I was on it for 9 years until June 2005. We started trying September 2005 and nothing. I'm just so down but again we never tryed anything. I know we decided to fost-adopt but to hear that I may have to go on the pill again brings tears to my eyes. Of course, I would only have to be on it for a few months, but still that's like a slap in the face. That's like giving up my last ray of hope. My husband and I are still going to go to the parenting courses for the fost-adopt program in November. I'm changing our plans, but do you guys understand???
My mom had constant cysts and was still able to conceive with me and my sister. After she had us, she stopped getting cysts. They didn't make her sterile. But I have CF. It sure can't help me. Maybe this past year I should have done Robitussin and bought ovulation kits. Part of me was in denial because I am healthy. I thought I'd conceive right away. Has anyone been in this situation? Please help me by giving advice. I don't post too often, but when I do it's from the heart. <img src="i/expressions/heart.gif" border="0">
