So, I went to the er on Sunday and again on Monday. I was diagnosed with chronic pelvic pain syndrome. That really freaks me out. I have been in immense pain and I really don't want to have to take the Vicodin they gave me. I also messed up my back even worse today, on top of my other pains. FML.

I start school in about 2 weeks. I'm so excited but ( Read more... )

Oh no!! So sorry about the diagnosis. I have some pelvic/vaginal/uterine pain and issues pretty much daily and I'm just waiting for my OB appointment to figure things out. My Google MD leads me to believe its a pelvic floor disorder. What are your symptoms, if I may ask?

Extreme lower abdominal pain, mostly concentrated on the left side right about where your ovary would be but it goes toward the middle as well, dull lower back pain again more on the left side, nausea, sweats, and dizziness. The only thing that makes the pain better is sitting down. Monday it was so bad that I could barely walk and I felt like I was going to pass out. They've ruled out an big ovarian cyst and kidney stones. They did an ultrasound and didn't find anything though it was obvious I was in pain. I have to go to my OB and have her confirm. What scares me about the chronic pelvic pain is endometriosis can be a part of it.

Endometriosis is what I have ...if you didn't know that already. It hurts but eventually dulls itself out, if that's what you wanna call it, because you get so used to it that it becomes part of your daily life. Sucks, but you learn to live with it. Its been in my family for years and my cousins had 2 surgeries because of it.

Not trying to scare you because you know I love you more than words. Just letting you know.

Can't wait for Friday love <3

It's basically just a pain that occurs in your lower abdomen that lasts for what seems like forever. Sometimes they don't find the cause, which sucks.

I caved and took one today because it was unbearable. Luckily, Paul is very supportive and respects if I choose to take medication or not. He's also very cautious and confronts me or his sponsor if he has any kind of thoughts. Once, he considered giving some of his old medication to one of the girls he works with to help her cope with withdrawals. I made him see it from his PO's perspective and he totally understood it. He flushed them that night.
