It's interesting isn't it BW! As soon as I read the part about prednisone I thought about you, but I realise it's used to treat other things as well

So, I went to the doc today to request the test. I don't want this thread to become my personal journal, I'll put most of the details on my blog, but basically he said it could very well be a combination of both. We've been discussing the possibility of getting a lap banding, because he understands that noone who CAN help me with fertility WILL because of the weight. So he has referred me to a surgeon. Thing is, and this is why he felt it would be so beneficial, before a lap band is performed, they do a full lot of tests to rule out a medical condition that will not be affected by the lap band, so they can make sure it's not a waste if time. So i'll get all the tests which will either pick up the problem, or I'll get the lap band which will force me to lose weight at least. Win/win!
