Well my weekend went well now it is the begining of a long week. Jake My puppy had his surgery yesterday so he can not help make the puppy population any bigger lol he was nutered. I know it sounds mean but it is the right thing to do to calm him down some and keep him from running in search of other female dogs hes my baby and if anything happened to him i would be crushed.
Yesterday was the waiting game we dropped him off at eight and then had towait until 200 to pick him up but we had some stuff that we did in between to pass the tiem we had to take my aunt to DMV to renew her license so we went ito the mall for a bit and had lunch at taco bell then I came home and cleaned out his crate and put fresh blanket in there and made him his rice.
he has to have rice with his dog food to prevent him from bomiting yep i even get the difficult dog lol I love him to death though, Yesterday was a day of rest for the two of us He slept most of the day and then suddenly popped out of his crate around seven thirty and actually scared me becasue he had beeen so quiet lol.
Today begins the process of trying to keep him mellow for the next seven to ten days um yeah right uh huh how is that going to work lol he is already back to being a pig and trying to be a nut like he was before so now when he gets to hyper I put him in his crate for a few hours and that helps mellow him out don't want any complications for my baby. I have not dared to look at teh incision I want to but I am afraid of hurting him mom has though so that is good well that is it for my week thus far and oh no its not I ma going to my friend's babies birthday party that i have not seen since highschool graduation so excikted she lives in virginia now She and her husband were both in the military until she got a medical discharge so proud of them
a description of living with cp through some of my personal experience. i wish i had started it earlier because it would have been much easier but my goal is to help other understand the difficulties of having CP and how it can make you feel

Feeling good again
Happy for that lol. I have been walking ecery day this week with Faith going to the river and dipping our feet in the water . Its tireing but good for me. I need to keep it up to get some weight off lol. Its not east but its needed to keep my hips in check don't need any more issues with them.
i need to get back into doing my physical therapy as well it is so hard to keep all this stuff going it is physically and mentally tiring.
And as for comments to my two fellow fololowers i have tried cranberry juice and it does not work for me for urine infections because i can not drink enough of it even diluted because of my reflux thye ar thinking it may be related to my endometriosis because my urine dips have been negative lately. It is something i can't say but is abreviated IC. SIt is a chronic inflamation of my bladder lining.
To sheila with the Merilax post, I have not tried it i take metamucil it is orange flavored and rotten on the reflux but it does work for the constipation. I have been takin g it twice a day every day since the issue and no more pain or issue so yep think im gonna keep going I have also been eating rasin bran yummy my favorite cereal why i did not remembe rthat I dont know lol

final post on yucky matter i hope
Well i told everyone that this blog is on my cp an oany other midical issues so this is a part of my life and i think manu others lives who are living with Cp. although the CP is not the only thing that contributes to the issue. i just got through my bout with endometriosis abdominal pain as well so that did not help but also having muscles that do not respond normally is not good either.
any how i finally got relief after six stool softeners a dose of metamucil and patience that was the hardest part. being so uncomfortable and just having to wait. i do not know how mayny read my blog faithfully besides sheila but i am putting this out for those who want to know about CP. I feel that this issue is getting worse as i get older and it is so difficult to daal with sometimes. i do not know for sheila how Malayna is in this department but mine has affected me my entire life it just so happens that this one was a really bad episode lol sorry for the long post on pooping but I hope it will bring answers to someone else out there

It goes from one thing to the next for me
this is kind of a personal thing but it goes along with having CP and so does iBS I am pretty sure. I was up most of the night with stomach pain and discomfort. i feel really quite uncomfortble and have been using stool softeners and metamucil since last night and it does not seem to be working so well. i just honestly wish that i could get a break. i do what the docs tell me to do and still wind up in the situation I am trying to avoid boy how frustrating i just want no pain for a while well ok more than three days would be nice the nuva ring seems to be doing the trick for the moment so let's hope it continues.
i know if I end up needing a doctor visit for thuis they will try and push it off as my endo at my PCP so I am just praying it will break on its own. I am so tired of knowing what the discomfort is from and being told that it is from mt endometriosis they told me that the last tiem i had a urinary infection until they got the dip back. then i got put onto antibiotics and apologized to and oh you do have bacteria in your urine you need a follow up urine dip to make sure you are infection clear oh well it is all just frustrating I hope i am feeling better soon. I am dog sitting this week for my aunt because she is going away so I just hope it will leave me alone before monday

appointment went well
the main reason being i had my own doctor. that makes all the idfference in the world. i was not bomnarded with information again, I was able to discuss all options with her and offfer my reasons why i did not want them. she agreed with most of them.
We discussed depo provara
here was my response I do not think that is the best option because of bone density she then asled well what makes you feel that bone density could be an issue for you my answer well the ortho said that my hip bone looked a little thin on x ray then her response was nope not for you no broken hips under my care.
then we discussed the IUD maraina I just plainly told her I did not feel comfortable with that option at all so it was dropped right there.
then we discussed the birth control pill which as stated before was going to be my choice, she did not feel comfortable with the pill because of my boarderline high blood pressure and the fact taht i was on them before and they did not really help but was going to give them another try.
then she threw in another option that i had heard of called the nuva ring and said does the pill still sound good. Nope i want to give the ring a go first. So that is what i am currently on. I think this is just luck but since putting it in yesterday afternoon when we finally got back i have had no cramps.
I am just so happy that my doctor understands where i am commming from and is welling to listen. she did the calculation on the paper work that i was givven and i have a moderate risk of Having IC a chronic inflamation of the bladder so if the palvic pain does not stay gone with the ring the next step is to get a confirmed diagnosis of IC I do not want to do that but if it means pain relief i am for it.
Teh only way t o get a confirmed diagnosis is to be catheterized and have tow solutions inserted into the bladder one with saline and the other with potassium. If the potassium give significat pain that is a confirmed positive. lets just hope the ring does the job and most of the pain was endometriosis related.

appointment tomorrow for the endo and spuradic bladder pain
Well, let's see how this one goes lol. I am going to discuss options romorrow with my ob so we shall see what she thinks I know what i am going to push for and pray it works this time. i want to try continuous birth control it sounds like the less invasive of the options so I hope it works. i feel alone honestly right now. i wanted so much for mom to help with the choice but she is unable to go to the appointment yet again so i am going with my sister who is very understanding and may offer her insight which will help but it just is not the same as having mom help me.
this has been one of the hardest things in my life to date. It makes me have so many questions on choices i have made to wait on having children, the ob continues to tell me i have plenty of time but in my mind i continue to ask myself if i really do/ I know i am not ready for them yet but it honestly makes me think on my choices each and every day. I feel really confused but i am dealing with it as best i can and trying not to let it get the better of me.
I am having mild pain again. Should be due for another demon bleed soon but who knows another fun aspect of endometriosis never knowing what is comming my way. Well i will update on the appointment and put the answers to my ton of questions well some on here so people know whats going through my mind and better yet so i can keep track of the events of this lovely condition. I know this blog was suposed to be all about my CP but honestly that does not take precidence in my life over the endometriosis.
I am just so accustomed to it that i do not think about it and it does not really but a restriction on my life. Yes ther are things i can do things i can not do but that is the same with everyone. I walk differently so what sometimes i talk differently especially if I am tired oh well the ones who really care know how to help me thorugh those times. Just something i have become used to living with. That is what my cP is a part of me it is not who i am well that is my post for today I covered my feelings on so many issues sorry and Oh yes another one I am taking my protonix for reflux twice a day for the next week to try and get it under control because she thinks that is what was causing part of my sore throat, i think she may be right because there is not so much burning in there now but im still not feeling 100 percent yet. Oh well just another day in the world of Jenny hi malayna and sheila hope miss malayna is having a blast at school and with her aqua therapy i want to join her lol in the water any way ha ha i have not been able to get entirely wet all summer because of the temperature of the water and the cramping and spasticity
