OT-In need of a hig :(

So i know this isn't about baby Kyra and in fact she is wonderful...Definitley a bright spot in some pretty bleak days!  So lately things just feel like they are falling apart...Since i have had Kyra I have been dealing with some pretty drastic weight loss and dizzy spells, so i went to the doctor a couple weeks ago and had some bloodwork done to check my thyroid, enzyme levels, and just a full work up.  Well last week my doctor called and everything looked good except for my white count.  It is pretty low so she had me come back in this week to get some more blood drawn so they could do a smear to check and make sure the size and shape of the cells look right.  I am not terribly worried about this because my doctor seems to think that it isn't going to be anyhting to worry about.  So that isn't anything too terrible, but a couple weeks back my hubby started to complain that his "man area" was hurting him.  Well being the stubborn man that he is he didn't go to the doctor until Thursday morning.  He does a lot a heavy lifting in his job so we thought he may have a hernia, but the doctor told him that he thinks it could just be inflammaiton causing him pain.  He put him on a NSAID for 5 days and if that doesn't work he will have to do a sonogram b/c he is concerned that it may be testicular cancer.  He says that this is something that sually shows up in the mid - late 20s or late 70s.  So i am in panick mode right now b/c the meds haven't helped the pain yet.  So right now i am on vacation at my parents and i am having a really hard time enjoying myself.  I know i shouldn't think the worst yet, but i am having a really hard time.  So we will be retunring home on Monday and then know more on Tuesday.  
Sorry this is so long and if it doesn't make sense...I just needed somewhere to get it out without ruining everyone else's good time.  I hope all is well with everyone else!  ((HUGS))  Heather

Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers ladies...This week is going much better than last week did!  Aaron's pain went away and so for now they just want to monitor everything and then if the pain returns we will go from there.  So now that he is done with the meds i just hope nothing comes back...As far as my blood work i am still waiting to here from my dr.  I called today, but with the holiday i think they are just running behind.  I really think that everything is going to come back fine.  So then we are kind of starting back over at square one.  My dr. really is kind of thinking that nursing is causing all of my weight loss which seems so crazy to me.  I gained 16lbs while pregnant and since i had Kyra i have lost 36lbs.  So we if everything come back clean on my bloodwork we are going to just continue to monitor everything and then if i continue to drop weight I will be sent to a nutritionist to try to come up with a better meal plan for me.  So things are looking up and i am hoping to hear from my dr. tomorrow.

Oh honey, i'm sorry you are going through this.  just think of it as a bump in your road, and you are not gooing to trip over that bump.  This might not be anything, and I know is easier said than done but try to relax.  i will pray that everything comes back normal, and if your hubby does have a sonogram I will also pray that is nothing, just pain.  BIG HUGS for you my dear and keep looking at your little kyra, she will make everything seem like nothing.


Love,
Jenny

Thanks...I was kind of having a pity party for myself that day.  It just seemed to pile up on me right before we left for vacation.  I am hoping to hear back about my bood tests tomorrow or Wednesday and we will find out tomorrow if Aaron has to go in for a sonogram or not.  I am just going to concentrate on taking everything on step at a time and pray all these problems will work out.
