It was approved!!!!

Okay so Tricare surprise me for once. Normally it is a pain to get any time of refer. Well, today a week later I called the benefit line to just see yes or no, but I already knew it would be a no. So anyways, I got this rude lady and gave her the information and then she was typing and stuff. The next thing I knew she was like okay you been assign this Doctor and gave me a name and number and a authorize code to know it was approved. Shock was I! So, yes I have been approved, but now if I could get ahold of the office every time I called the lines are busy, so I am hoping they call me back. Anyways, I just thought I would share! Now, I am scared! I have never been in the hospital for anything by ER visit which are minor. Anyways, I will deal with that later. I will keep you up to date!

Sweat Pea

Okay so now I know for a fact that I have lost my mind. I like to look on craigslist just to see what there out there and I always check the free stuff, because you never know what you could find. So Friday there was this add for a free Chihuahua dog. The person had to get away it fast because her daughter was allergic to it bad. Oh, I thought Chihuahua are so cute, and I have always wanted one of them. So I beg Jeremy and he caved in and said yes! I knew he would for me!!!
So we got Sweat Pea (I dont really like the name but that is the name she had and she knows it so I not going to try to change it). Anyways, I have feel in love with her. We decide to give away, Zowie, our lab, because she is just way to much. Anyways, Sweat Pea is my baby! She follows me around the house and won't even go to Jeremy. She dont attack him or anything just if he is holding her and I get up she jumps up after me. I guess I am become a dog lover...lol! Anyways here is some pictures of our new little joy!

Happy Memorial Day

I just want to say I hope everyone has a wonderful and happy Memorial Day. I also want to stop and take a minute to remember all those that fight for our freedom, past and present. I am thankful to live in a country where I am free to chose to worship has I chose and free to do as I please. I am thankful to be married to a soldier and have a brother-in-law that both chose to fight for our freedom. I am thankful for everyone that serves in any branches of the military...but sorry I lean toward Army (I wonder why). Anyways, everyone has a safe and wonderful day!



This is a picture of warrior walk here at Fort Stewart, GA. Each redbud tree is planted in memory of a soldier from here that has lost their life frighting in Iraq since the beginning.

Waiting on the Refer

Okay so I went to the doctor today and we started talking about everything going on with me. Here is my deal: I am have PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome), High blood pressure and Depression. Okay so here is the Deal, PCOS is my reason for not being able to get pregnant which is the reason for the depression. So we should fix the PCOS to fix the Depression. How do we fix the PCOS? Well, weight loss will help with the hormone levels that deal with the PCOS. Weight gain is actually a sign of PCOS. Okay so why can't I just lose it. Well, because I have a problem (because of the PCOS) with my insulin intake, called Insulin resistance. This goes hand and hand with Diabetes, no I don't have diabetes yet, but I could one day if I don't get it taken care of. The reason the insulin is important is because: It is possible that this extra insulin hitches onto the receptors lining the ovary and stimulates cyst production. I have tried to take Metformin for the insulin levels but that did not help any. So what I am saying here is I can diet and work out but because of my body I will have trouble losing the weight. Okay the other problem is high blood pressure. That can easily be fixed with weight loss too. So the answer to ALL my problems is weight loss.
So the doctor said he thinks the best thing would be to put in a refer for a Gastric Bypass. I was shocked but excitied! I don't know if I will get approved because I barely fit the guidelines. You have to have a BMI of 40% but if your BMI is 34% or higher and you have a medical problem then they take that into consideration. So my BMI is 38% and he express the extreme high blood pressure. So I got to wait about a week to find out if it gets approved. I am sure they will make me get more information before I do it. It is scary because I been reading about it and there is some people I know that have had it done here and lost lots of pounds. The way I eat will have to completely change, but I am willing to do it! So please hope and pray with me that I get approve because then it won't cost me a dime to have it done and it will help me. This is going to be a very slow week waiting!

My Heart goes out!

Okay so laterly I have not updated on here and I dont know why. I just have not felt like writing, I guess you can say I been depressed or down in the dumps. I just have not been up to doing anything but laying around the house. Anyways, I decide last week that this weekend I was going to end that. So I am trying but this weekend was a hard weekend.
Last week I had a prayer in my heart for a family from my hometown of Buna, TX whose son was fighting cancer. He has been fighting it for years, then Friday he moved on from this Earthly life to a better place. While, I never actually knew Troy personally, I was good friend with his sister. Living in a small town you know everyone. He was awesome in sports and played just about all of them. His family are a strong family with a so much faith. I feel for Troy's wife, who now in her early 20s and is a widow. So young, both of them. Makes me wish I was back in Texas!
Anyways, then today is Mother's Day. Okay the day I hate going to church. Yes I said it. It is sad because it just a reminder to me that I am not a mother yet. So, to me it is just another day because I dont celebrate it.
Okay well that is all I have to say now. So I will stop whinning!
