Here we go again!

I am so sad! I had been feeling pretty well after 2 years of debilitating symptoms. I was seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. Then, just like that, my scary symptoms are back with a vengeance. Last night I could feel the surges start from my core. When I went to bed, I had one of my scary spells where it feels like my heart is stopping beating and I am going to faint. Today I took a little nap because I didn't sleep well last night. When I woke up and tried to walk, it felt like my brain wasn't telling my legs what to do. I felt like jello and like I could fall. All because my period has decided not to come. I hate periods, but I would rather have a million of them if it would keep these symptoms away. I just don't feel strong enough to handle this again!😭

    Hi Rebecca,

    I'm sorry you're feeling so rough right now!!

    I know you don't feel like you're strong, but you are.

    You're not alone...My pattern seems similar... even though I cant use a calendar to predict my symptoms anymore, I definitely feel at my worst when my body is trying (and failing) to have a period.

    I am trying to teach myself to find a focal point besides my symptoms... one of the hardest things I've ever tried. Not having great success yet, but I have to keep trying... just like anything, I hope once I can do it once, then again, then again, it will get easier.

    Prayers ans hugs for a quick recovery from this current bout of crud.

      What a sweet reply! Thanks! I am having a small pity party, but tomorrow I will try to get up and start all over again. It can't last forever, can it?🙂

    I am sorry it is like this for you. If it is any comfort I am going through similar. My periods were starting to spread out and only for a couple of days, the symptoms were starting to be less regular, I could go a whole week without them. Then bam...out of the blue, daily intense symptoms again, periods back to every three weeks and for five days. I wake up shaky again like I did from the beginning. I have to hold onto hope that there is a light at the end of the tunnel.... lets hold onto that together x

      It's a deal! I will try my best. I am working six days in a row this week. Hoping I can do it! Thanks for the encouragement!
