Gained a little this time. I did not skip any breakfast this week and I even ate some takeout yesterday (chicken wings with sour cream on the side). Bottom line, I think I ate a little more this week.
My blood pressure is still great these days and I hope it stays that way!
What has been worrying me lately is some spotting that I wish to explain away as my uterus transitioning and adjusting. Before my latest period started, I had some very light spotting that lasted a couple of days, then stopped. Then I had my period that lasted about 6-7 days. Then a couple of days later, the surprise spotting came back. I still have it now, it has been 2 days.
I got my MRI follow-up call from the radiologist who performed my uterine fibroid embolization. She told me that my fibroids seemed to have responded well to the procedure and I told her that the heavy bleeding is gone and that things are going well. My body decided to play tricks on me many hours after that call... I hope I did not jinx it or anything like that. I also do not wish to see a gynecologist for the spotting. According to a quick Google search, menstrual spotting can be caused by so many things! I guess I will simply wait and see and contact a doctor if I get heaving bleeding again. The only permanent remedies against fibroids are either a hysterectomy or menopause and I need to keep this in mind.
Weather-wise, after our snow fall, it is going to be pretty much overcast with rising temperatures, probably with rain mixed in. This is really depressing. I would have preferred colder temperatures if it meant more sunshine, but it does not work that way! At least I did not have too much shovelling to do! I have to get ready soon to hit the road because I need to drive my mom to an appointment and it is 2 hours away!
