I had a visit with my doctor today to discuss the results of some tests I had done a few weeks ago. Turns out I'm not as healthy as I believed. She diagnosed me with Polycystic Overy Syndrome (PCOS). It's not as scary as it sounds, but it is kind of serious. It pretty much means that I have a 3 cm cyst on one of my overies (it's harmless- but it's not going away) and unless I take a pill everyday for the rest of my life, it'll just keep getting bigger and causing problems in the rest of my body (throughing my hormones out of wack and, oh yeah, heart desease, liver failure, and diabetes- It's complicated). Speaking of diabetes, I also found out that I'm Pre-Diabetic (type 2)- my doc said that it's a symptom of PCOS and It's good that we know this now so that I can start eating better and (of course) taking onother pill- possibly for the rest of my life.
I'm gonna have to cut this short because I'm getting sleepy. I'll keep you updated if anything new happens.
