It's been so long since I last posted and so much has happened. Monday was a wonderful euphoric (sp?) day spent reveling in my profound experience on Sunday. I believe it was a pretty good day. Tuesday I get a call from S, my FNP/RE, who had ordered my b/w. I was surprised to hear her voice as I was pretty sure the b/w would come out normal. I wasn't prepared to learn that while my liver and kidney function are great, my cholesterol is 273!!! Can you belieave that I went from 188 to 273 in 7 years!! My LDL is now 188!! My Trigycerites are 194 and "red light" is 200. NOT GOOD!!! I commented "Life can't get any better can it?" S said, "Not this month". So, I'm on Lipitor for 90 dys (unless I get PG) and we'll redo the b/w. I also have been ordered on a low fat/high fiber diet (SBD works obviously) and I have to take Metamucil. I'm to start 1 tsp of fiber each morning for a week and then add 1 tsp a night for a week and then slowly work up to 3 tsp in the am and 3 tsp in the pm. I looked at getting the capsule form, but decided that with the amount of capsules I'd have to take that I really didn't want to go that route. I take enough pills already. K made the comment "How many pills can a person take in a day?!". LOL! I really wish that I could have had a chance to do just fiber and a good diet, but I guess with TTC I should be agressive and get it do asap. I personally don't want to be on Lipitor for the rest of my life. Bad enough I have to deal with Endometriosis for the rest of my life. Wednesday we went into "spill mode" at work and I've been working long days every since. Thursday was a really rough day as I had to get up at 4am to be in to work at 6am after only 4 hrs of sleep. I was not a happy camper. I went to bed that night at 8:30p and didn't get back up until 6:30am. Friday was much better b/c I had enough sleep. Today I was unhappy about having to go into work b/c my boss was hogging all the work and I sat around and twiddled my thumbs. You know, I really understand that this is all new to him, but everytime something new comes up, he wants to do it all himself. He seems to have issues with delegating things. I'm not sure if there is an aura I put out that makes him not want to share the workload or what. My former boss was great at utilizing me and my talents. This boss seems to care less. I've learned of a position 1.5 miles from my house that is the same kind of work I do (without the response part). It's really tempting to put my resume in. The only thing that I wonder, is what the bene's are? I think it's a sole proprietorship, so that means no benes. I have to have benefits b/c of the Endo. I really need to pray about my job. I mentioned to my boss that I think he and I need to discuss what accomendation the company will make once I have a baby and we have a large spill. I made it clear that I anticipate being able to breastfeed and a baby can't be put on hold. He said that we would discuss and agrees that the company needs to make accomendations. I think that I will keep my eyes and ears open. The company has grown in the 3 yrs I've been with them and they are into bigger stuff and there are going to be more weeks like this one and in August. I didn't sign on for this and refuse to put my future child on hold for my job. I hope that I can get my life back soon. Rhonda
