why i havent posted for awhile....

so here goes....since may i have been having a lot of pelvic pain. the pain will come and be almost like a small contraction in which you cant move for a minute but then your fine. i really didnt think anything of it until a few weeks ago when i was on the treadmill at the gym. i got off and went to do my ab workout when i laid down, i couldnt get back up, i was just curled up in a ball in extreme pain. really weird considering i do this same workout 3 times a week and have been for a long time so it shouldnt bother me. it took everything out of me just to get my kids and get home. i told josh and he asked for me to please get it checked out. so i scheduled the appointment with the obgyn. after my appointment he said that something didnt feel quite right and sent me to have a pelvic ultrasound. now i am thinking "oh i am fine, nothing is wrong, i just have pain every once in awhile." well after the ultrasound the radiologiest comes in to tell me that i have a cyst on or near my left ovary. i am shocked! the doctor calls me later to tell me that they are running cancer markers on my blood work but that he doesnt think it is cancer, and that because of the size of the cyst i could lose my ovary. we made it through last weekend to an appointment on monday with the doctor. he gives us a couple choices, scope it right away or give it a week have another ultrasound and see if it goes down. if it goes down we will continue to watch it if not, we go in and see what we are dealing with right away. we chose the second option. now we are praying that this 6 cm cyst goes away and i dont have to have anything done. this coming wednesday i will have another ultrasound with the results. if there is no change i will go in to have it scoped and probably removed on friday of next week. right now we are anxious and at times scared of what this will mean for our family in having more children. i am just so grateful for the priesthood and the blessings that we can receive from our Father in Heaven to give us comfort and strength. i am so grateful for my family and their loving support. so thats our story...i will for sure keep everyone updated as soon as i find out. i know a lot of you are praying for me already...thank you for your prayers and phone calls of comfort.
