Guest guest Posted April 27, 2002 Report Share Posted April 27, 2002 Hey Marcia: Thanks for the great idea w/ the essential oil; I will definitely try that and let you know how it goes. As for being pregnant, on your suggestion I checked (my mom works in an ER, so I get a lifetime supply of free p. tests) -- but no, nothing yet. I got pregnant before my surgery the very first time I tried (or rather, didn't *not* try!), so the fact that it's been almost a year and I'm not really makes me wonder if there is a hormonal imbalance involved? I mean, an imbalance could keep you from getting knocked up, couldn't it? Hm...I'm going for an OB/GYN appt in a couple weeks; maybe I should ask him to test my hormones? (Can they do that? Is it really $$$?) Thanks lots!
