The Waiting Game
I went to the Doctor this morning to get an ultra-sound & labs. The ultra-sound was fine, so we just had to wait for the lab results. I've had my phone next to me ALL day, and came to the conclusion that they forgot to call me. Finally, I got the call. My levels were still a tiny bit too high, so I have to continue taking the Lupron at the full 20 units tonight & Thursday. I go back Friday morning for more labs. When we initially started doing this, we read books & pamphlets. The one thing they talk about most is the emotional struggle. I thought to myself, I am totally prepared for this. I'm not going to cry & constantly worry & stress, what happens, happens. Well, now I get it. Phone call after phone call saying we're not ready really takes it's toll. I'm keeping my head up, because after all, this is just a bump in the road, not a road block.
