SUCCESS!

This is VERY exciting! I got my blood taken and my medication levels are perfect! I was sweating it because you don't know if your levels are lowered until you have a seizure or blood taken. But, now I know! I hope someone who is taking lamictal stumbles upon this blog and will know that Implanon is safe! I have no idea to make my blog more public, so here is just hoping I guess.

As far as the hair issue goes, my hair doesn't appear any thinner, there isn't an excessive amount of hair in my shower drain and the most hair comes out when I brush it fresh from the shower with tangles and all. So, I don't think there is any cause for alarm. Maybe the vitamins are helping, there is no way to know really. I just got the shampoo today, which I probably should use anyway because my hair is dry all the time it seems.

Well, anyway,  that news put a smile on my face and my mind to rest! Side note: I've been running for about 2 weeks now, 1 hour 4-5 days a week and I still seem to be in that plateau. I lost about 4 pounds but I hope this isn't related. I will keep with it, I have to keep in mind the holidays are coming up and running for an hour might not counteract the massive sugar and Thanksgiving dinners (I have a big family and we have a Thanksgiving weekend. Huge meals 3 times a day over a period of 4 days plus a lot of sitting around and socializing).

So, that is all for now. Next I have to set up my 3 month check up with the doctor who did the procedure sometime soon. It probably won't be until December because the clinic that did it is one of the few bilingual offices and we have a big Mexican-American population so you can imagine the wait.

I digress...

I will update on the 3 month check up and my exciting 3 month anniversary. I know are all as excited as I am.
