Life is sweet... absolutely full of lessons every single moment of every single day.... as I struggle to get to know this new Tina, bits and pieces of the old one fight for attention...
I read that cells in our body change every single day which must be the reason why we wake up in the morning feeling this new day is a chance for a new start right?
I feel better every day and today I will be tested on many levels.... first I have been so out of it that I didn't even order my bp meds so I ran out yesterday and with Family day... everything was closed... second, I am making my appointment for the breast clinic in Hamilton for second opinion..... third I need to make a decision, should I go see Dr. Gibb today...
I was on bio-identical hormones for 2 years and after my research and dissection of my pathology report I don't know... so I am being tested here.... I have heard that there are reports that bio-identicals along with regular HRT increase the risk of breast cancer, and when you are in the risk category already hmmmm......... should you listen to the alternative reports that say it can actually help...... I don't know what to believe... do I go completely traditional medicine or alternative or do I combine... how do I know.... If I don't go with bio-identicals then I will take none.
I have heard that there are natural products and substances you can use but I read conflicting studies on them too that applies to when you are in the risk category.... hmmmmmm..
These big decision's can alter a path... do we really think about way off into our future when we make decisions or are are we looking at short term only? Do we really think what the outcomes will be of our choices today in 10, 15, 25 years? Does the alternative practitioner know.... as with many new treatments they don't have history on their side to determine affects later on...
Are we playing Russian roulette with our futures.... are we guinea pigs.... are we really sure about traditional medications and practices...... how do they know for sure..... there are no guarantees either way..... our intuition and educated guesses are our only true resource that guides our compass....
Ok, what to do today... quandary... the first big decision to make.... but I need all the facts.... so relax... today all I have to do is be the gatherer... of facts... I don't have to make the decision today..... I need to pull the info together to create the report... ok good... I will see Dr Gibb to discuss bio-identical treatments and research.... will call the Hamilton clinic and make an appt for second opinion..... and I will carry on living today... today only with intensity.... just being who I am today, what I can accomplish today and only today and give thanks for that gift....
What are you grateful for and how will you focus your energy today?????
