Hey, all...

I've only posted a few times on the board and then my body decided that it didn't like me. LOL

I've been sick for the past 2 weeks or so, with an unknown illness. I went to the doctor and to the hospital, had 2 bags of saline IV'ed into me, blood drawn... nothing was found to be wrong. My main symptoms were feeling very "out of it", couldn't put sentences together, I would space out for minutes at a time. First, I was told that I could be low blood pressure (it wasn't), then maybe dehydration or low blood sugar (doesn't look like that was the case either), and then maybe the flu. But my symptoms haven't been flu-like. I've been nauseous every so often, but then again, I'm pregnant! I've been nauseous for the past 16 weeks or so.

Anyway, I have a history of hydrocephalus and my OB decided that I need to see a neurologist (to which I agreed). I am thankfully feeling MUCH better - almost back to normal - but have yet to find out what all this was. My doc is still trying to get me into a neurologist, even though I'm feeling better, which is a good thing.

Just wanted to let you all know that I'm still around! Sorry I haven't been able to post much. As I continue to feel better, I'll post more. I am still looking forward to getting to know you all better!

Karyn,


I hope you continue to make progress! I hope they find it was nothing and that you have a very boring pregnancy :)

Karyn,


Keep us posted on what you find out from the neurologist. I'll be praying in the meantime...
