On my way home from Dr KK

Hi ladies,

Thanks for all of the well wishes.

Even though I've been bleeding, Dr. KK had them do an ultrasound. The ultrasound reveled poor blood flow to the uterus (I'm not surprised). She mentioned the blood flow when I'm not bleeding would show even worse blood flow to the uterus, so great.

Also, She thought my thyroid looked big, so they did an ultrasound of that too, which looks normal, though the radiologist's reading won't be in for a few days. I told her I just thought I looked like my dad, he's italian and has a big nose as a big Adams apple.

That's really it for now. The labs will speak for themselves. I was hoping I would never get to this point, but I can honestly say that I now feel I am in the best hands.

Thanks ladies. I never would have gone if you hadn't pushed me. >:D<
