Sleepless

[scottishlass]

I should be in bed but I can't sleep ... I doped myself with painkillers and anticonvulsants as it is the time of the month again. Most of the time I can take it, but almost all three to four months the pain gets so hard to bear that I wish I'd die. Good thing Olly drove to the chemists and got me some stuff.
But man, I really am fed up with being a woman ... I wish I'd get into menopause and be done with it :-(

I have a slight case of fibrimosis, which means I have bits and pieces of the uterus also growing in the lower abdomen area outside the uterus and they get affected by the hormones just like the uterus itself. So when I get my period, these bits and pieces also grow slightly and put pressure on kidneys, the ovaries and the uterus, hence the convulsions and the pain. As the stuff can't get out of the body before it disintegrates, it collects and every three to four months, I'm in real trouble. Then only heavy anti-convulsants and pain killers do the trick ... or a complete removal.
