Wow it's been forever...

So I'm getting married, for real this time. We met in October of 2009, got engaged in Feb of 2010 and are getting married in 3 months. For me that's a super long time to be in a relationship. Now on to what's new...I may be finally ending the honeymoon phase of my Type One Diabetes, or at least starting to be much closer to that point than I have in the past. In more review of the insurance coverage, I will have to pay 2500 of my pump fees rather than 5000. As I am financially better off than I have been in the past this may be doable with a little help from my family (paid back help of course). The new scary adventure is that I found out yesterday (unofficially) that I have a "hole" in my heart. It's more of a flap than a true hole, and it does open and close at will. (Lucky me) apparently it's quite common according to the Mayo Clinic but that doesn't really make me feel better. It's called a Patent Foramen Ovale, and if you like feel free to google it. I don't know what's going to happen next as I haven't gotten the official diagnosis from my doctor as of yet, I'm not even sure if he knows what the results of the test are. As the test I was given was a doppler it was an audible test, and the bubble passing through were very noticeable, being a medical professional did not help me hear them, a 12 year old would have noticed that it was an abnormal sound and known the test was positive. I am quite stressed about the possible results, making my blood sugar problems worse....it's a vicious cycle and I want to get off...
