my health.

6 years ago I suspected something was wrong with my health. I was always sick and constantly in pain. I saw a few doctors and had a lot of tests done throughout the years but I could never get an answer to what was wrong with me until just this last year.

I had seen a doctor who thought I may have endometriosis and her suspicion was right! She referred me to a surgeon who officially diagnosed me with endometriosis and uterus didelphys after a surgery in September of 2011.

Since my surgery I've learned endometriosis can cause infertility and having a uterus didelphys can cause complications to pregnancy. Finding these conditions has been like a blessing in disguise because now we know what we are up against.

It's been nice to have a reason to all my crazy health problems but unfortunately, there isn't much that can be done for endometriosis and the intense pain it causes. It's just been nice to actually know what's wrong with me.

Although they finally found out what is wrong with me, I wasn't really comfortable with my doctor. I had tons of questions and concerns but, I didn't feel like I was getting all my questions answered and they seemed to push things aside that had me kind of worried.

Just a few weeks ago I saw a new doctor that took the time to explain everything and answer all my crazy questions. She was very sincere and I felt like she actually cared about me and my concerns.

Blake and I want nothing more than to have little babies so naturally this has become our main concern. With us getting married in June my doctor waisted no time coming up with a plan towards a healthy pregnancy.

Her plan started with a surgery I had today to remove a uterin septum. She had found the septum during my routine exam and explained to me that removing it reduces complications during delivery so, she wanted to get it out if the way very first. Next on the list is managing my endometriosis to try and reduce fertility issues.

I am recovering well and have the best fiancé who has spoiled me with all the goodies and treats I could need but most importantly we are excited to know that we are one step closer to having little munchkins.
