I feel like I could be a dealer with all the pills I have right now.

My poor doggy, Scout has epilepsy :(  He's had some seizures so now he has to take 2 pills a day in the hopes that it can be controlled. I'm glad that his pills are in a blue bottle so I don't accidently take them with my 5 million pills a day. Right now I'm on synthroid, Metformin x3 (down from x5) PNV, Provera, Amoxicilin x2 (ear/throat infection), and ear drops x3 (ear infection). Can't wait for AF to get here to start many tests and more crazy meds. I never dreamed it would be this hard to get pregnant. We've been trying for 18 months. Although I am hopeful and pray everyday, there is no garuntee that we will ever get pregnant. I am annovulatory because of my PCOS. I am putting my faith in my doctor that he will prescribe me medication that will correct this. This journey already seems like it has taken so long; three doctors, bloodwork, medication that makes you almost unbarably sick everyday, medication that gives you mood swings and driving 2+ hrs one way to the doctor. More coming attractions I can look forward to next month: HSG(a test where dye is injected into the uterus to check for blockages in the fallopian tubes, more bloodwork, possible ultrasoud and more medication with side effects.

Dear Lord,
Please grant me patience. You know in my heart how badly I want a child. Comfort me when I am frustrated hearing about others' pregnancies and new babies. I know you have a plan for me and it will unfold itself in your time, not mine. I trust in you God that because of our trials now, we will cherish every moment of pregnancy and parenthood.
In Your Name I Pray,
Amen.
