Hey Ellie,

I'll get back on the prenatals. I have them, but they've been sitting in the medicine cabinet. I signed up for Curves in December and was enjoying it before the holidays. I've been too sick to go, but hopefully by the end of this week...

About nine years ago, I had my Cortisol tested and it was wildly high. Doc thought I had Cushings, but then he retested it a few times and it came back normal. I've also had slightly elevated prolactin for a couple of years (no brain tumor though \:\) )

Something I saw on the web suggested that if adrenal fatigue is mixed with hypothyroidism, it can lead to weight gain, or at least not weight loss. Can you think of anything else that would cause the pulsating pupils?

I've been trying to do more whole foods. While that hasn't led to any weight loss over the last two weeks, it does seem to have stopped the crazy weight gain \:\) And, I can certainly do a better job with that.

I'll try to be a very good patient for a month and then get into see the endo that also does primary care that my high risk OB recommended. Oh, and I have to go see the regular OB too. Oh, and the eye doctor, and the dentist.... Time to get the health stuff in order if I want to make use of H's little swimmers ;\) BTW, did I ever mention that he had a vas reversal after 17 years? With my age and issues + the reversal, we were scared about fertility issues with Newtimer. But, I got pregnant on our honeymoon \:\) We'd only tried for two or three months before that, so I guess I was waiting for it to be legal, lol. I hope things go as smoothly this time. I think they will, but last time I was really on top of my health stuff at the time and I need to get back there.

Thanks!
Oldtimer


Best,
