Hey guys,
It’s been awhile!
If you followed my 30 day blog challenge closely you’ll know that the only reason I did it was to get into a habit of posting regularly. I had great intentions..
As you know I have some ongoing health issues that I thought had been resolved but clearly I was oh so wrong 😦
I have suffered with cysts on my ovaries since I was 16. I’ve had numerous operations and the most recent one was supposed to be the last one, as I was assured that I would have no more pain. That lasted for about 3 months?
So for the last 2 weeks I’ve had numerous doctor visits and 2 trips to the hospital. I’ve been unable to go to work and barely able to walk or even get out of bed. I even had to force my boyfriend to blow dry my hair because it hurts too much to raise my arms.
My periods have become an absolute nightmare and my irons levels have slowly dropped every month because of the amount of blood loss which has resulted in me being put on supplements to replenish my iron stash.
So about 2 weeks ago, after my period from hell ended, the pain didn’t go away. I continued to bleed a little bit on and off up until yesterday morning and then last night it appears my period has returned. So I’ve been bleeding now for 3weeks and now face another week long period.
I now have to wait to see a specialist, the same one who did my operation in February, before I will even find out what the problem is. My doctor has hinted at endometriosis but there aren’t any apparent signs of this in the scans I had last week.
So I have to wait for my appointment, which could take weeks or even months. Most days I sleep a lot because of the pain relief prescribed which is why I haven’t posted in awhile. There is so much that I want to do but I don’t think this is going to be as regular as I hoped.
Peace, love and unicorns!
