1X: You again....

....and I'm NOT happy to see you! I was happy to be in an off the rack XL. And I had gotten rid of most of my 1Xes. Drat! Most of my smaller clothes still fit, albeit not as well. But, I did cave and buy a few new pieces. Penneys had a kickin' sale, and I had a coupon. Even so, I so believed the hcg "cured" me.

It did not.

It's going to be at least a month (I think) before I get the test results. I am now officially emotionally wed to the idea of it being a cortisol problem. It just seems to fit so well! Whatever *it* is, I'm not enjoying the odd symptoms that sometimes accompany the insane weight gain. For one, I randomly shake. It's not super obvious, but I feel it. It feels like the chills. And, occasionally, I burst out in weird sweat (TMI?). It's not comfortable. And it's not menopausal stuff. The numbers and cycle regularity don't support it.

I had two great visits with girlfriends today, one new friend, and one friend I've had for awhile. It totally cheered me up. Girl time is the best. :)
