Better than being pregnant.

Rare bleeding disorder?... that sounds serious enough to get it properly checked out.
Can't you bypass that doctor, somehow?

Well, she was the 3rd Doctor I'd seen about my period issues. The first sent me for a blood test and said there was nothing wrong with me. The second sent me for a dildocam appointment and then said there was nothing wrong with me, then the third listened to my symptoms and said I have a bleeding disorder and prescribed me tranexamic acid to slow down the bleeding enough to avoid the massive clots I was passing every 30-45 mins at that time. I'm nearly out of the tablets now, so I'm going to ask for more tests to find out exactly what's wrong. At least which of the several bleeding disorders I have, and why I was fine till I was 24.

You should try to find out what's going on in there... It may be nothing... it may be something big...

The hard part will be finding a doctor who gives a damn - but you should definitely get more opinions. What you're dealing with does not sound normal at all, especially since it seems to have happened quickly and isn't going away.

Progressing from the IUD wiki to a bunch of barnstars on someone's personal wiki.

My lender got back to me about the bank's counter off on my condo and it looks like I'll be able to afford it after all! (If current interest rates hold for another week or two)

Now I just need to stop sitting on my hands and call my realtor...

Good news.

Let's hope the bank stops being arseholes. (Yeah I know, that's a pipedream. I mean in your instance).

Well, it turned out it wasn't cramps. Somehow I did something to my spine. I know it's not cramps because Midol didn't help at all, and I know it's the spine because the pain keeps spreading to my arms and neck. If it doesn't get better in a few days, I may have to go to the chiropractor for the first time in like two years.

Status of my depression: Well, I haven't really been able to muster the will to complete anything I should be doing in these past few weeks. My psychologist basically said I have to force myself to do stuff. It's just that I have been internally driven all my life, and suddenly that self-motivation is just gone, and I don't know what to do to get it back. I just don't really care anymore. I was such a perfectionist all my life but I slowly learned to ease up and forgive myself when I failed, but now I'm to the point where I'm failing all the time.

My psychiatrist upped my prescribed Lexapro dosage, because I'm already on the maximum dosage he's comfortable with on all my other drugs. The problem with Lexapro is that it can cause weight gain, and I've already gained enough weight in the past year. My psychiatrist and his nurse were considering switching me to a weight-neutral serotonin drug, but decided against it because I don't typically react well to these drugs; in fact, Lexapro is the first one that hasn't made me suicidal. They feel it is too much of a risk to try to wean me off Lexapro and then put me on a weight-neutral drug without knowing what side effects I will experience. So, great, a higher dose of the drug that causes me to gain weight, when I am already dangerously overweight. What could go wrong?

Lexapro I remember that one. It caused me to lose weight and turn into a sex machine (7 years without any meds now). I hope you get things in check - best to you.

I'm about the watch Captain Phillips and make myself a cup of tea.

Bliss.
