Yay for layers and hiding the bulge! Bloating is my nemesis...

I'm so tired of this bloating today. I think the antibiotics are not agreeing with my tummy and they're also kicking up a stink with the infection in there. I'm sitting at my computer in just my underpants. The pyjamas came off. I'm feverish, and between my weight gain and the bloating, the damn pants just wanted to go bye byes.

I've been really bloated the past couple of days and it sucks. I feel so uncomfortable. I called my Dr. this morning and she wants me to come in for an appointment tomorrow to make sure everything is ok. I just started freaking out. I just had surgery I don't want to go through another one right now. I just don't want to be so uncomfortable. Since I have endo on my bowel I'm guessing that's probably why I'm feeling this way. I'm just so completely miserable and scared.

The endo on the bowels! Aww I feel for you paintheseconds. I have it too! Good luck with your doc visit. I am up at almost 2 am again in pain and bloated. I wish I could make it go away for all of us.

If you've just had your lap, that could account for some of the bloat, too. It took me a good month or so for that to go down afterward. Fun fun. But, glad you're getting in to see your doc, hope everything is ok!

Sorry you didn't get much sleep. I didn't either. It will be two months since I've had my surgery on the 10th. My doctor has told me I'm expecting to much to quickly which to a point is true. But having to feel this miserable I think is ridiculous. I don't feel like people in my life get it. That's why I'm so glad to find all of you.

The lap could cause the majority of it give it some time. It is miserable and we are all here to support the rants. I am skipping a library function today that I was looking forward to bc of my bloating. Each year the Mayors Literacy picks a book and we have programs for a month tonight the author will be there and a presentation will be done on the book. It is true story this year of a murder that took place in Canton in the 1920's of a journalist for the local paper it gained national attention. Tonight is a roaring 20's party and I had gotten a flapper inspired dress to wear tonight, had my fur out and my pearls to put on but with lack of sleep and the pain not to mention how would ever get in the dress with this bloating. I will be missing it. I always feel so bad when I can not go to something I try to do it all. It makes me feel like I give up when I have to stay home. Its dumb I can't do it all but I wish I could and really wish endo did not get in the way of my life like it does. Ok enough of the poor me. LOL sorry girls had a moment maybe if I go I just wont dress up....

Aw, Keri, you'd make an excellent flapper in my imagination. I know it's not the same as the real thing... No, you can't do it all sometimes. As much as that sucks, it's reality for some of us some of the time. But not all of the time. And remember how far you've come??? You may not be able to kick endo's ass every day YET, but you're getting a hell of a lot closer than you were before!

Hope you start feeling better KSA. My book club was doing a movie night tonight and I didn't go because of the pain and the fact that I have to get up early and work tomorrow. It can be really disappointing and annoying when we don't get to do the things we want to. I went to the doctor today. She reassured me that nothing is wrong and gave me a new pain med to try. She tried pushing the Lupron again and I told her I didn't want to do it. She recommended that I try pelvic massages so I think that may the route I'm going to try along with the endo diet and acupuncture.

I have to visit houses all day today as part of my course and all's I can is I'm so glad that dresses are a real piece of clothing! My belly makes me look at least 3 months pregnant.

Trying to plan my outfit for the day. I can be a size 3 in the morning and 6 months prego by the afternoon so Im going with a dress. Perfect to cover it all up. My husband and I discussed the issue last night as my attitude is horrible and he really wants us to start looking for a doc now verses waiting till after my year from my last surgery. Doc hunt begins now...
