This medical problem is driving me nuts with the dry eyes! My eyelids actually hurt! And my toe and foot joints as well as my knees hurt. I am a mess. Need to get an appointment to see my doctor about it.

tick....tick....tick, @kdogg331.

Seriously. I always wanted kids, then found out I couldn't without medical intervention. Then I turned 40...when I reached 50 I realized the clock had ran down. Then I met dh when I was 52. Would I have done the medical intervention had we met when I was younger? Yep.

I’m sorry

I want them eventually but I don’t think I’m anywhere near ready.

Plus I’ve never even had a boyfriend or done anything

I had a friend who couldn't carry a pregnancy to term so they adopted 2 kids. I lost two myself. Miscarriages are hard on a woman. At least I was able to have 2 kids.

It'll happen when it is supposed to happen, Kelsey. Have faith and wait.

@CapricornFarm, are you using a moisturizing drop like Refresh or Systane? I use both of those for dry eye syndrome. DH put tear duct plugs in for me once. Boy did they work. My eyes started producing so much tears that I had a steady stream going down my cheeks. Finally had to have him pull them out.

I am using drops, but I want to see what my doctor recommends. And see if he agrees with my diagnosis.

I discovered I have/had polycystic Ovarian disease aka Stein Leventhal syndrome. Plus some weird thing with my uterus.

Dealing with miscarriages and still births were always heartbreaking when I worked OB. Women just have an instinctive empathy with other when when they go through that. My heart always broke for them.

Thanks, K. I am falling apart ever since I turned 60.

I had fibroids in my uterus.
