Now What?

I haven't posted in awhile so this will have to be a catch up to the last few months! 

I have been seeing a nurse practitioner that is willing to let me use the Fibromyalgia and Fatigue's protocols to an extent. I started in thyroid medication and feel 100% better!! The last week I went in for an echocardigram because my nurse detected a heart murmur. They found that I have a leaky valve in my heart. Of course this alarms me! I go to see a cardiologist in Aug, so obviously I am not dying since they see that it  is safe to wait that long to see me. The scary part is the idea that fixing the valve means open heart surgery, although I don't know yet if they are going to want to fix it right away or not.

Back in March we went to GA to see my family. My sister told me about a Dr. there in Augusta that uses chinese medicine and has great success with his weightloss patients. Yesterday she called me and said that she had got me information on his fees and things. I called him right away and I am now waiting on my medicine from him (actually it is a tea). He told me (he is a cancer research MD) that the heart murmur will go away as I lose the weight.

So this has gone from a battle with hormones to something a little more! I will be talking to Dr. Li every two weeks so I will work a little harder to keep my blog updated on how it is going and my weightloss. I am going to also track it on facebook and maybe even get the nerve to put up some pictures, but don't expect them until I can show a before and a after.
