Yesterday the pain from my throat was too much to handle. I finally remembered the name of the doctor I saw (that I liked) 4 years ago when I had mono. She got me in and told me I had strep and ear infections. I'm now on antibiotics and hoping that the pain goes away ASAP!
I happened to ask her if she had any suggested about an OBGYN in the area that had experience working with women with PCOS. Turns out she herself is a specialist in the area, I had no idea! I almost started crying I was so excited. One of my biggest hurdles of starting down this path was to actually speak to a doctor about it since the last times I have done so it hasn't been received well.
This was the opposite case with this doctor. She is very supportive and encouraging! She was also understanding of why its been so hard for me to lose weight, it goes along with the PCOS and Insulin Resistance. She has started me on Metformin (which I'm going to start next week once i'm feeling better) and we are hoping that starts to help me lose some weight, use insulin better and to get my body back to "normal"
She also made a point to tell me what a miracle it was that we were able to get pregnant with Ava and have a healthy pregnancy. I'm so thankful for Ava and I know now what a miracle she is. There is a reason she is here with us and that she came when she did.
