Whine begets cheese...

I finally got real sleep after midnight last night. What a crappy weekend - trying to finish the program book while cramping and running to the bathroom every hour or two for about 48 hours straight. The hotel guy didn't get me anything, so I faked it.

I called the other (referred) doctor's office this morning. No one answered. Left a message. Called again, office was after hours. Bleah.

Apparently the fibroid thing is kinda common in middle-aged women. One of the gals at work had the same type of thing, as well as friends who ghad it too.

I told my regular doctor about the cramping and heavy bleeding this last weekend. She said it's time for the hist.

Yaaay, except for the surgery thing, but I only am a little whiney after abdominal surgery. After all, I went to work the day after I got out of the hospital after having my appendix out. Good drugs make the difference... ;-)

The "usual" for fibroids is why my gyno was surprised I developed them in my early 30's. I'm on round two, but so long as this herbal supplement I'm taking keeps my symptoms down, they're not worried. I probably ought to see what a new ultrasound would have to say, though I'm nervous the ovarian cysts I have (also round two, and I am not PCOS) will be too large for them to want to do more than operate.
