Taking tests and finding out if I am pregnant as early as possible has
always been in my best interest- Because- I have a heart condition that I
take medication for and once I believe that I have conceived my doctor
switches it out with a "safer" rx. I could take the "safer" rx all the time
but it does not work as well. So- I am not willing to part with my preferred
rx unless it is for the very real possibility of a baby. Plus, I have other
issues and other meds- and I am sure that a lot of the women purchasing
Opk's and Hpt's have their own reasons and because of this I think it does
us a lot of good, actually.
