TTC News:
Yesterday I went online to buy more Co-Q10. A little birdie told me to make sure it does not interact with my blood thinners. (I have been taking co-Q10 since last January based on the RI's recommendation.) I have only been taking blood thinners since Sept. I did a search and came up with the following.

It seems that they are saying that Co-Q10 will make your blood coagulate or thicken so it will go against the reason I am taking blood thinners. I am really glad that I checked. I did not order any more. I have mixed feelings about this discovery. I am mad that I possibly wasted a year of TTC since I have been taking it that long. I am glad that I found out bc maybe when I stop it will make the blood thinners work better and I will finally have success. Who knows? UGG it is so annoying that I have to check everything that I take for more than one issue, my ovulation, my immune system, and now my blood clotting issues.
Other News: I have been enjoying the rental too much. I have to give it back tomorrow. I still do not have a car so that means I have to get rides to work or continue to pay the rental fee. I am not really sure what I want, but I am going used so it makes it harder to be picky. I thought by the time I had to get another car I would have kids and need a car suited for that. My DH does not really think that I need the kind of car I want. It is rough to face the fact that I don't really need it now. I want a small suv like a honda CRV or something in that neighborhood. I could get one now and be able to afford it or get something smaller and save some money. I wanted this kind of car 10 years ago and could not afford it so I got a civic. Now 10 years later I can afford it. I feel that I should just get what I want bc I am tired of waiting around. If I can't have kids, at least let me have a nice car.
I went online and saw some good deals. I am going to check some out and then see what the real deal will be. Hopefully I can get something this week.
The CRV is one of the safest vehicles out there. I'd vote for getting what you want, us IF girls need a break!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! That totally STINKS that you've been down the wrong path on the Co-Q10. That has got to be so FRUSTRATING!!! I am always mad at myself when something like that happens, but its SO hard to be on top of everything, especially medicine, as its so confusing!
ReplyDeleteI vote with JB to splurge a little and get you something you enjoy that doesn't break the bank. :-)
Arrgh, sorry, I know, checking everything is a PIA!! But when it comes to blood thinners, you must be careful!!! Sending hugs!
