So here is the rest of my story. Over a period of two years I have put my weight back on. I still work out. In fact I am now participating in 5ks. I have just let my diet get out of control. I am a self confessed sweet-a-holic. This year has been a great year, but it has not been without it's struggles. Only a select few of my closest friends (2) and family (4) not counting my husband, know what I have faced. I think holding it all in has somewhat lead me back to the place where I have used food as a comfort. March of this year I went to the doctor for my yearly only to find out I was pregnant. Great News! Within 5 minutes of hearing the news I also found out that I was in the process of miscarrying. No matter how many times the Doctor told me this was normal this was yout bodies way of saying something wasn't right. I still could not stop thinking what it might have been that I did to cause this. I would think back at the falls I took, the spermicide I used, right down to the herb tea I was drinking. This was a Thursday. I proceeded to attend my class as soon as I left the Doctors. I had company coming in for the weekend that I had to entertain. So the pill the Doctor prescribed me to use to complete the miscarriage I could not take. So here I am smiling and joking the whole weekend all the while carrying my dead baby inside. I could not have wanted this more to be over and done with. My company left Sunday night. So I proceeded to insert the pills and wait. It was miserable. I was up all night throwing up and using the bathroom at the same time. I felt as though I was dying. Finally I passed it. It had been an emotional ordeal for me. Especially considering we were not trying to get pregnant. Some may say well thats good. You weren't planning on this. No, you don't get it I never planned on any of my kids. But they were the best things to ever happen to me. There was never a thought in my mind that I didn't want this. After my ordeal with the miscarriage I get a call from the Doctor saying she wants to see me, did I see the fetal sac, what did it look like? I kept thinking why all the questions. She said, your blood work has come in your hormone levels are extremely high. Not knowing what was normal I had to ask. Normal is 100,000 hcg mine was close to 200,000 hcg. So what does this mean? Mole pregnancy, there are other terms but this is what she said. Not knowing what it was or what it meant I proceeded to do what anyone would do. Internet. Molar pregnancy is not a pregancy it is a tumor that mimics one. It can be malignant and spread. Now not have I only lossed what to me was a child but I am faced with the possibilty of fighting cancer. For me the news could not have gotten any worse. I went from mourning a loss to hoping it was only that a loss a miscarriage.... I spent the next 3 months going to the Doctors office once a week to have my hormones levels tested. Thankfully now everything is fine. My hormone hcg shows 0. The hardest part of this for me was keeping this all inside. Sometimes thinking I could have had a little boy or girl come this October. I am thankful for the family I do have. I am also thankful however strange it might sound to some that it was just a miscarriage. Funny, I can say this on here because I know noone knows who I am. So to all my friends in fatsecret land, I thank you for listening.
