I'll be MIA for a while

[Angelicdragon]

Hi, I am going to be absent for a little while. I have been in hospital on critical care with acute asthma and bronchitis. Also high stress and anxiety levels no doubt caused by being sick. I've not really been well since May.
Add to that my liver function tests are not normal (I do NOT drink alcohol or take painkillers) so I have a scan for Wednesday to check for gall stones etc. Next week I have a lung function test and see the respiratory specialist. So I am afraid even though I am 47 and running out of time to TTC I have to put it on the back burner for a while and try to get healthy.
I am on almost complete bed rest with only marginal gentle exercise each day to stop my muscles seizing up.
I was in hospital for a week, out for 2 days and my Dr wanted me back in but I said no I'd stay home and rest. So I am on warning if I don't improve I'll be back in hospital.
I feel so weak, so useless and wish I could just be back to my normal self. I hate being sick and having to rely on others for help. I am the one who helps who helps everyone else not the other way round

So I will be back when I am well enough to think properly and sit without pain and be able to breathe.
hugs t you all and all the best on your TTC journeys.
I expect to come back and read of lots of BFPs

Time for an update and it's not good My GP followed up my liver function tests results. I had a an ultrasound which showed a 7cm long 'something' and so was referred for a CT scan.
I have a tumour measuring 7.3cm x 6.0cm 8.8 cm. I see the surgical team on Sept 1 to discuss removal of it. there is a 95% chance it is a benign Focal nodular hyperplasia but a 5% chance of it being a malignant fibrolamellar HCC.

It seems so unreal to be getting pos OPKs and knowing there is not a darn thing I can do about it. I am in pain all the time under my right rib cage as I also have a 3cm cyst there to add to everything. I don't drink, smoke, do drugs or even swear so seems awfully unfair this is happening to me.
My last few months of TTC are disappearing before my eyes but I have to be healthy now for the children I doo have.
