So looks like I'm finally getting answers. I definitely have Hypothyroid, but the dr believes I may also have pcos. Both are treatable. I got new labs taken today for my thyroid disorder. She was going to go by my original labs but since I told her I really believe this is whats causing my infertility and want it fixed asap she decided to run new current labs today to get me on the best dose of medication then on cycle days 3-5 of my next cycle I am to go and get more labs drawn to confirm the pcos disorder. So all in all it looks like I'm finally going to get some answers! I couldn't be happier. Its not just a matter of waiting and following Dr's orders.
I have my gynecologist visit on Thursday she told me to go over with her the pcos suspicion and then to show her the scripts that will be drawn and see if she has any other things she wants to add to the labs and if so to send the results to her.
So all in all I believe everyone will work together and we will get it all situated.
In August of 2012 we began our journey of trying to start a family. It had turned into a much longer and harder journey than we could have ever imagined. In June 2015 we were blessed with our beautiful baby boy. But our journey isn't over yet. We feel God has called us to something bigger than even we can imagine and we are so very excited to see what is in store.

Today is the Day!
So in about 30 minutes I will be heading to my Dr's appointment. I'm nervous but excited all at the same time. I am just trying to tell myself to trust. It will all work out. Just keep my head up. I'll update this post after the visit right now my find is too full to really concentrate on what I want to say.

Home stretch
So I'm getting to that time so close to my endocrinologist visit! I'm so close but so far away at the same time. At least I'm working every day till then so it will make it go by so much faster than if I had to just sit and wait. I called the office to find out if they were going to send me a script for blood work or just do it when I came in that same day. They said since I'm a new patient they will just go off the labs from my referring doctor. So hopefully that means I'll be taken seriously. I found out they now want your tsh levels around 1.5 and mine were 5.67 so I'm pretty sure they will listen to what I have to say! Hopefully we get this show on the road right away and I start noticing a difference.
I do have to say that without the vitex my temperatures have begun to rise...but I still get a few jumps and dips even though the rest remains somewhat steady. Its getting kinda hard to tell though if I have anovulatory cycles or just a slow ovulation raise. When I was taking the Vitex I was able to tell without a doubt.
My Dr. told me to bring the bottle in with me let them see it and tell them I was on it when I took the last labs and would like to continue if they give the ok. So we will see.
Only two days after my endocrinologist visit I have my gyno visit where we will go over my charts and if she feels necessary run more labs and just see how things look. I want to wait till my thyroid levels get in order before continuing the baby train. Wish me luck!
