labwork

Well. I stayed out of bed most of yesterday and except for a 4 hr nap in the middle, did so again most of today.

Went to the dr, she ordered a buttload of blood tests.6 tubes worth! I secretly (not so secretly, actually) love going to my doctor cuz she’s uber cute and super nice and always listens to my myriad of conditions, and she’s been super supportive with the dozens of med changes I’ve required over the years. Did I mention she’s uber cute? Yeah, there’s that, too. 🙂

But. We also discussed putting me on birth control. Not for the controlling birth part of it, but for the regulatory bits. Apparently because I don’t get periods regularly, if at all, I’m at higher risk for osteoporosis and other things. I became more worried about this as I put two and two together and realized that if Gloria is being truthful and really did shatter her foot just by stepping wrong, she probably has osteoporosis (from years of alcoholism and drug abuse), but that further increases my risk of it, if she has it. The dr is also concerned about the possibility of polycystic ovary issues, which Gloria also has had.

So. I finally bit the bullet and agreed to go to a gynecologist. Ugh. Even tho I’m 34 I’ve never been and I’m really not looking forward to it. I have 20 days to mentally prepare myself. *exhales* eep.

I finished watching the rest of the Harry Potter movies today. I’ve decided I liked the first few and the last few more than I liked the middle few. *shrugs* I thought there were rumours that Dumbledore was gay, but after finishing the series I’m realizing they must’ve been about the actor and not the character, which disappointed me a bit, but oh well.

The dr did up my abilify, so I started that tonite. We’ll see how that goes. I’m already maxed out on the celexa. lah.

I wonder if the blood tests will turn up anything except laziness….:op
