Sorry that I've been away from so long. Last Tues. I went and saw my OB, who gave me the advice that taking the PTU would be far less risky than not taking it. So that was it for me and I've been taking it ever since. The bad problem has been that I've been very ill all week long now

. I've lost 7 lbs. because I've been able to keep very little down. I feel miserable and now I don't know what to do if I can't tolerate this happening over and over, since my OB thinks this is what's best. He's hoping that the nausea and vomiting subside, but there isn't really any inkling of that happening yet. I just have different degrees of nausea, how bad depends on when I've taken the medicine.
If that weren't enough, I've been very depressed over this whole thing. I hate being sick like crazy and at this point, no lines have been drawn about there ever being a point where we decide that this option isn't the best for us. In my mind, this means a potential of another at least 4 months of being very sick, which is very not good to me. I go again to see the OB tomorrow and I'm hoping he'll be able to either give me more hope that things will work themselves out or take me off of it (the latter having a TINY chance of happening). And at some point, my husband and I may very well have to be the ones who decide how much I can physically take.
