I’m new to this, fumbling my way through DO NOT CONTACT ME WITH YOUR SERVICES. But what do people do? Do use EHR and submit your claims from there, set up your payers and jump thru all the hoops of electronic payments or submit claims through portals and get checks sent? I am soo frustrated and also want to avoid all the fees that are charged too!!
My PCP can’t do anything for my PCOS (so she says) and my OB is unreliable, always 1-2 hours late to appointments (sometimes has to cancel outright) and seems uneducated in PCOS so I’m going to a women’s clinic that’s quicker to get into and I’m wondering if I just need to advocate for my health and ask for labs/ treatments.
I have lean PCOS- have a BMI of 19, 37 (almost 38) and having issues with keeping a pregnancy. We can get pregnant now but can’t seem to have hormones and everything line up for the right environment. I’m tired of trying and trying. I want to know if I have insulin resistance and chronic inflammation- what labs could I request??
High AMH, high level of follicles and enlarged ovaries. Are the only indicators to PCOS. I had normal hormones (from what was tested) otherwise.
How do you all survive the “I want mommy” phase? Son is 3 years old (and 2 months)- and bedtime/ getting hurt/ waking up/ night time wake ups- he doesn’t want daddy to be there, just “mommy”. I get flustered because my husband sorta walks out and looks at me, like “well he wants you” and he feels rejected/ gets frustrated when our son acts out to get me to come in (I am more of the disciplinarian and tend to offer more comfort I think). My husband gives more “demands” kinda sternly and we have different techniques, neither are good or bad, just different.
I wanna know any tips, it’s honestly more for myself because my husband gives up and I can’t keep rescuing (it takes away his authority with our son and then I’m on 24/7!)
Trigger warning; miscarriage And living child
I had a missed miscarriage 3 months ago, after trying for almost 2 years after the birth of my son (who’s 3 now).
Just got my body back on track and felt healed up, had a period and first cycle of ovulating we tried for baby #3. 4/5 days after ovulating I had some light brown discharge a few times wiping. Thought “oh that’s probably from ovulation, it was uncomfortable and I cramped a lot”.
2 days ago, 8dpo, had light pink discharge (had that with my son) and some cramping - hoping “oh that’s implantation!”.
Yesterday had an ton of symptoms, frequent urge to pee, tired (been tired for days tho), brain fog, heavy / full uterus feeling (which felt similar to my 2nd pregnancy which I had around 6 weeks…) and some aversions, breast tenderness started today. Also my dog has been super clingy.
I took a test Friday morning, negative, but it only being 8dpo, I’m not surprised. I’m going to test tomorrow too, got a more sensitive test and fingers crossed. If I’m not pregnant, then I’m gonna lose my mind bc all these symptoms are insane and intense (also uncomfortable…)
Trigger warning: missed miscarriage + living child
I had a missed miscarriage in February, this is the first cycle of ovulation/ period/ovulation where we tried for another pregnancy (followed directions of OB and waited for a period before TTC).
Think we got timing right, sex the two days before ovulation day. And finally felt like there was a break (no testing strips, no checking symptoms, didn’t feel as sad for to most part and was glad to get back on track after our devastating loss).
Few days ago I had light brown discharge a bit (few days after ovulation) which I attributed to maybe some older blood from ovulation.
Yesterday had small spot of light pink discharge (had that with my first child before pregnancy positive pregnancy test, ended in healthy live birth).
Also been having a heavy sort of feeling in uterus, that’s what it felt like when I was in early pregnancy before. Malaise, tired, brain fog. Frequently needing to pee and early morning waking. Now I’m fully in my head and having a hard time not jumping ahead. Took a test this morning, negative, but I’m only 9dpo so doubt anything would show up. I’ll test again in two days.
I’m excited about my PP, a lot has come together and all my clients are continuing with me or naturally discharged due to meeting their goals.
Biggest headache is insurance credentialing. I’m paying someone to consult and help me with paperwork but it seems to process NEVER ENDS. And I’ve been hitting weird road blocks like one insurance, literally ghosting me and leaving me high and dry and having to rely on prior off / another insurance just never actually received the information from the main credentialing app and says that it’s the other companies’s problem but no it’s theirs and I can’t tell when the problems are gonna stop.
Just a vent sesh here! I know it’ll all be Ok but it makes me feel less than competent with figuring it out while money sits on the table and I’m paying rent/ seeing clients and waiting to get paid (or waiting to find a stupid problem…)
