Health Stress.
9 weeks of post-partum hell.
I really hope I get the answers I need tomorrow. I’m going to a new OB/GYN – at my 6 week follow up with my first one “oh if these issues are still happening in a week, let’s get you in for an ultrasound.”
*One week later* – still happening, only worse…
“We don’t have availability until two weeks, and your specific doctor isn’t available until July.” (On another note, my experience with my OB/GYN the 2nd time wasn’t the best. Very lackadaisical and just didn’t feel like a priority).
If I needed a reminder of how messed up the US healthcare system is – ESPECIALLY for women – it smacked me in the face like a dead fish this post-partum time around. I even went to urgent care yesterday – no help. 😕
Anyway, I’ve been so incredibly stressed about these issues, I’m praying to God tomorrow that I have a resolution or a path to health. I can’t take it anymore… It’s been so rough. Please send some good vibes that I get better soon. <3 ESPECIALLY since I’m still healing from getting skin cancer removed from my calf! -_-
On top of that, my 2 year old Tarin has an appointment at Children’s hospital tomorrow for an issue he’s having. This issue *doesn’t* seem to be a big deal, but I also don’t know?
Health stress sucks. The days DRAGGGG as you’re waiting for appointments, test results, etc.
Anyway, I hope I can put all this behind me soon. It’s been really tough to feel like myself. I feel like a shell of myself.
Much love,
