On the fertility front....
Big day tomorrow. As you may have guessed by the description of the blog, I've been dealt the diagnosis of "infertility." It does not define me, but it has changed me a bit. Long story short, Greg and I've been trying to concieve (TTC) since August of 2009. 30 cycles this month. I've been diagnosed, misdiagnosed, and then diagnosed again. I have PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome), and now we know that both my fallopian tubes are blocked. This journey has been long, frustrating, irritating, faith building, faith crushing, inspiring, depressing, and just about every emotion rolled into one!!! Tomorrow though, is a new day in our journey. A procedure that will hoepfully FINALLY make it possible for us to conceive. I'm having a cannulation. It's kinda like a cardiac cath for my fallopian tubes. They'll sedate me, send the cath up to the correct spot :D, clear the blockage, and all will be well (hopefully). I sure could use some prayers tomorrow. I'm a little nervous, but I know that God's holding me in his hand. The story of the footprints comes to mind here....I have no doubt the footprints in the sand tomorrow will not be mine....they are His, because I am being carried!!! Wish us luck! :)
