Hi,
i hope its okay to post this. been having some health issues and needed some support.
(This post contains issues with womens health, run away if that makes you uncomfortable. lol)
--
so, i always had issues with my cycle, i used to rarely get a period, and my doctor used to tell me that was normal. So my mom and I never worried. I'm 34 years old, so perhaps the information back then wasnt great? we also didnt have much money.
About two years ago when my mother passed away, suddenly my health declined. Right after she passed my period suddenly came down, and i havent been able to get rid of it ever since.
Most days i spot, other days i bleed so bad and have huge clots. I sometimes get a few hours without bleeding, and then it comes back. I went to one gyno and he told me to lose weight and get on the pill. Not going to lie, i didnt want to get on the pill. So i went to another gyno (yesterday) he saw polyps and removed them. I dont want to depend on a pill if its possible to avoid that.
Just remembering the feeling of him scraping down there makes me weak in the knees. I feel awful today, lots of cramps and some clotting.
I'm prediabetic and have issues with my blood pressure. i want to improve my health, but to be honest, food is a huge comfort to me. I havent admitted this to anyone, but right after my procedure i went to get mcdonalds. i feel sad admitting that. They're telling me to lose weight to fix my issues, and i do something like that.
i can lose weight and do well for a few months, then something happens and i fall back to my old habits.
if theres anyone working on improving their health, or if you have any tips, please feel free to respond.
