...basically I'm over it.
I know I haven't posted in a while, and Ouchy sent me an e-mail to remind me that I have a great bunch of girls here that'll listen to me complain! Ok, so here I go, promise I'll try and keep it short.
So, about three months ago I came off my birthcontrol. I was on it continously for almost 4 years, which in retrospect is basically nothing, but a long time nonetheless. My first period off of the pill was totally bareable. I was able to function through my day with two motrin and that's it. My second was slightly worse, not bad - had to take a naproxen to sleep, but I dealt. Haha...well, that didn't last long at all! Ovulation for this last period was HELL (pardon my french). Actually, ovulating in general is extremely painful for me, but that's beside the point. Inbetween my periods discomfort was limited, nothing incredibly painful...maybe a few sharp pains here or there that would catch me off guard, take my breath away for a bit then be gone just as quick as it came.
This last period has been evil. I couldn't MOVE. I'm exhausted. I'm dizzy. I'm nauseous. The first and second days I had to run to the bathroom every hour, it was like someone turned on the faucet and forgot to turn it off. This is way random, but I'm peeing like every five minutes...I barely went to the bathroom twice a day.
I have a Dr's apt. on Thursday. It's been two years since my last surgery. I do not want to get on this cycle of surgery, treatment, surgery, treatment, etc, etc...But I'm curious to know what is going on...if more endo has grown, if something else is up...My energy right now is gone. I;m just...tired.
I'm so lost
