The January 8th appointment

To those who have reached out this week to ask how Monday went, “Thank you!” I wanted to wait until all results were back before I shared any news so that we would have a complete picture.

A little after 7 pm last night, my lab results finally posted. Dr. Rossi hasn’t commented on them yet, but I am sure she’ll concur with the following.

My CT scan, Inhibin B, and AMH tests all came back exactly as we would want them to be. The Inhibin A number is higher than it should be (which is slightly concerning), but this bloodwork is about trends versus getting too worked up about a slight variation. If the number is still up (or rising) in April when we re-test, then we’ll pay a bit more attention to it.

For now, however, I can breathe and live the next three months to the fullest, and that includes being part of the Wilmington Marathon Weekend February 24. I’ll be doing the half . . .and praying I stay ahead of the sweeper as I haven’t run this far in a long time and I didn’t start training when I should have! Wish me luck.

This little restaurant is becoming a regular stop when I go to Duke because it’s close to the hospital and the food is great.

I had just been told Dr. Rossi was running about an hour behind when I got the above results. As I knew we wouldn’t get lab results back for days, I asked reception if I could just skip the face-to-face visit. Within minutes, I got this message, and Rick and I were on our way back to Wilmington.

I signed up for the half marathon on the drive back to Wilmington.
