Blood in urine.. not good.
I have been sick this week...
I saw the NP again today for a cd 19 u/s... no follies... no cysts... just waiting for AF... probably didn't "O" this month. They also rechecked my urine for this infection and there was blood in it... So no wonder I have been so sick... So I am now on Cipro mega-dose for 3 days to (hopefully) clear up this bladder infection once and for all. On top of that I am having other major stomach issues... I thought that I had a stomach virus because I have been sooo nauseous and have had such bad stomach cramps and a low fever... but now I am getting a little afraid that I may have developed an ulcer. So as soon as I get this infection under control I will decide if I need to see a gastro-specialist about the other stuff. Basically I just feel terrible and have been spending my days on the sofa eating things like potatoes because I am not really handling food well... no vomiting... just pain and burning in the gut when I eat and pain and burning in the V when I pee... It has been an awful few days.
There has been no update since I asked my teaching partner to resign last week (on the advice of my principal) but he is refusing to resign. He is soooo unhappy teaching with me... he needs to leave but I am not sure why he now wants to "make things work". So that is adding to my stress and I am doing my best to ignore the problem. I guess I need to go back in and talk to my principal again... but right now I am just to week and worn out to deal with it right now. I feel that this is the main reason for these tummy issues... obviously.
I talked to the NP today about my fertility plan... I thought I would have to skip July because I will be out of town around "O" time and I thought that they would insist on monitoring but... She said I could go ahead and do clomid next month (just without a trigger). And the best thing is that since I was clear today in my scan I won't have to have another one... I will just call in when my period comes and she will call in the clomid for me. I am also planning to have the sonohistogram on cd 7 or 8 next month... so at least we are moving forward a little bit.
Sorry for the lack of posting... hopefully I will be feeling better in a couple of days and I will have some some to post about my dramatic work situation. So much for my sunny lazy summer break.
uggghhhh.

hang in there, sweetie. i've dealt with a few of these things alone, but i can't imagine doing this all at once. you're one tough cookie!
sorry about all the things you are going through. hope things smooth out soon.
Sounds to me like you have an ulcer. You are describing the same thing I went through when I had one. They are terribly painful. I hope you feel better soon.
I hope the cipro works quickly that you start feeling better shortly and that well the gastro thing... that you're able to find an answer. Also sorry to hear that the rere that you work with hasn't gotten the point that he's the problem not you. Can't possibly imagine why you have the feelings of an ulcer except that you're terribly stressed right now...
I hope you feel better soon.
Hope you can get this all worked out very soon. I hope that the Cipro does its job and you can clear up this bladder infection!
Just wanted to let you know that I am thinking about ya!
as far as the co-worker goes, why keep forcing the situation? why not just split the department down the middle? he takes his classes, you take yours, he takes a production, you take a production... it may not be ideal, but it might help you reclaim some of your happiness. and i wouldn't worry about the dept's reputation - it'll take less than a yr. for people to realize which ones are 'jamie shows' and which ones are 'his shows.'
I hope the meds help you and you get to feel better soon.
Take care.
