I am feeling good. So good that I have to be careful. I have to remember to still take it easy over this weekend, but I think that blood clot was the source of all my woes over the last two months. I called my doctor and she said, "YES!!!" because she has been bothering her husband at night talking about what could possibly be wrong.
Sometimes my back will hurt when I am sitting, but not necessarily in the same achy way it used to and so I think it is just a back that needs to be stretched or something and not the same inner grind I felt for weeks and weeks. And there has been no fever or chills or body aches....
I am thrilled! I can't remember the last time I felt this good - it has been so long! I am starting to feel like myself again and it is absolutely wonderful.
I started to say things to Thomas about the benefits of being young and healthy and then I got a very distinct feeling that I had nothing to do with this recovery.
I received a wonderful blessing the night before surgery and many prayers were offered in my behalf that all would be well and I would feel calm and peace and that is exactly what happened.
Prayers are answered and I am so grateful for that! I am still being careful and will be interested to hear what the OBGYN sees and says at the follow-up appointment in early December, but right now I am feeling so good and so so grateful. My faith has increased and I am so happy to be getting back to good health.

Isn't it crazy what a little clot can do to your body.

I am sorry I'm so late with my well-wishes and good lucks and all of that. I am glad that things seem to be going well and hope that you continue to feel better. You continue to inspire me with your optimism.
Is it okay that when I grow up I want to be like you? (Only without a blood clot in my lady-parts.)
Yay for feeling better! Did they do a genetic clotting panel to see if that's what caused the clot?
SOOOO glad to hear that things are getting better for you. I worry about my little Steph you know.

Oh! I do hope that you are really, really on the mend my friend. What a scary few days you've had. We will be thinking about you and sending healing vibes (and of course prayers) your way.
Ok. Where have I BEEN?!
I just read your last 3 posts. I feel like a crappy bloggy friend (who wants to be more of a real life friend) because I had no idea and was living my fine ol' bloggy life when you were having a scary one.
Scary, at least, and not sad. I hope you find out why that happened so that it will never ever happen again. At least.
You are a very strong person. !!!
(that means, VERY.)
Thinking of you. You seem to me such a strong WOMAN of good will.
so glad you're doing better! What a scare, but it sounds like you were in good hands... the heavenly kind too.
AWESOME!!!! SO HAPPY for you!!!
Oh my, I should read blogs more often I didn't even know any of this was going on! I'm so glad to hear that you are doing better and things are looking up! Please let me know if you need anything.
