Just need to ventFrom: Cat (anonymous@obgyn.net)Mon, 28 May 2001 18:44:23 -0500 (CDT)
Hey ladies, It's been awhile since I've written but I just wanted to have a place to dump some stuff where peeps understand! My visit to an endo in Feb started out well except I can't take that damn Glucophage. Made me so sick I couldn't function. Stopped taking it, got a new job where I am traveling a lot, and haven't been able to get back in to see him. I had bloodwork done last month at a regular MD and all my hormones are normal except the testosterone - even my gluc and insulin are fine. Which sucks since now I have nothing on which to blame 60 pounds of weight gain in 6 months. I haven't had a period since I stopped BCP to try the glucophage. To top it ALL OFF I had just about convinced myself that I would love this new life. I'm in a high-powered corporate position with lots of room for advancement, and I know a life and career like this (I am out of the house 75% of the month) will go the ways of the wind if I had kids, at least early on. I was getting excited about being able to pay off some of that college-related debt, which also wouldn't be easy with a kid in the house...then BAM my husband's best friend calls to say that his gf just got pregnant and they are getting married in a few months - and then his older brother just called tonight to tell him HIS gf is pregnant. Get this - she was on Depo and she conceived. The most effective bc on the market, and oops! Of course she is now the focus of family concern since there might be birth defects associated with DP (anyone heard of any, btw?) and everyone is gaga over the baby. So, needless to say, here I sit, feeling petty and crappy, bitching b/c I don't like the way I look or feel, and I did something terrible because of it. I told my husband it was hard for me to feel sorry for someone who is pregnant, no matter what "might" be wrong. He hasn't spoken to me since I said it. I hope Sonnet or Koolaide or Paula is around still, to read this and soothe my fears. If you think it was a bad thing to say, go ahead and lay it on me. If you "share my pain" so to speak, lay it on me. I just need some people to talk to.
