Well it's been another year of waiting. Since being diagnosed in December 2008 with a 6mm brain aneurysm I'm still waiting for surgery. Although I was supposed to be having surgery in the "fall." I never recieved a call with a specified date. In fact I had to call the Neurologist office to find out what was going on. My reply was, "You got bumped, what more can we say?" Perhaps a phone call in the early fall, mid fall or late fall would have at least eased my tension or provided me with some respect.
We're now moving into 2011 and I have no idea what this year will hold for me. I have not had any updated tests since 2009.
I've recently turned 36 and we're starting to try to have a family. We decided that since I have to continuously wait for surgery what's another 9 months? I don't want a Steel Magnolia's type of moment but it's not too far from my mind.
I can only say that since being diagnosed with PKD (Polycystic Kidney Disease) in September 2008 and a brain aneurysm as a result of PKD in December 2008 my life has been put on hold. In fact I haven't had a single check up with regards to my PKD with my Nephrologist since 2008. At that time he mentioned to me that I would have to have regular check ups becuase they need to watch a spot on my liver. I called after a year...than 2 years...but was never given a return call or follow up appointment.
With the Fertility clinic I'm monitored every day. I'm carfeully poked, prodded and interviewed.
You know what the difference is? Where the money is coming from and how fast it reaches my Dr.'s pockets.
That's all for now
