Finally!

I'm going to see my family doctor today, FINALLY. I've waited patiently to get my release from the OB's office and get an appointment, now the day has finally arrived.

.

There was a time in the past when I dreaded a doctors visit. I was always nervous of the finger sticks and blood draws. The poking, prodding and god forbid my worst nightmare...the scale. I'm happy to say most of that has changed. I still don't "like" being stuck or examined but I can handle it and the dread I once experienced has gone. I am sad to say the issue with the scale still remains but I've been assured by my husband that "all women complain about that" so I suppose it's normal.

Wish me luck. I know I'm having an EKG and blood work. I may or may not be sent for an ultrasound on my thyroid. I just hope I can walk out of that office today with some answers and better still, a sense of relief and assurance.
