all of that PLUS the crap I have to endure as it's coming--its INSANE...

I'm open to additional options and thats what we will discuss I hope there are some

It's a birth control pill. I used to be admitted to the hospital once a month for those same reasons while in college, so I know just how you feel.

Mireyna is a type of oral contraceptive, but I don't know the details.

What does your OB/Gyn suggest? Can he prescribe a stronger pain med? I used to have awful cramps in my early 20's, and Aleve (naproxin sodium) worked well - it's over the counter. Regular, daily exercise helps me a lot as well.

I do know that a hysterectomy really messes with your hormones. I would imagine you would just go into early menopause!

its CRAZY! I mean I am HURTING and they have gvn me Tramadol for the pain which is supposed to be pretty "strong" ---and I havent even FULLY started yet...

Eek! I guess you are way past Aleve, then.

MyManLovesWatches · 1 April 2009, 11:42 AM

I have an appt on the 13th Caroline so we will see what she suggests. The nurse suggested that new IUD thing and mentioned some cervex freezing in office procedure--we will see...

Well, good luck and let us know how it goes. There has to be something they can do!

Not to my knowledge Lisa....I have my pap annually always normal...Just very painful periods

Lion · 1 April 2009, 01:07 PM

You ladies are real troopers, I do not know how you all can put up with the pain and discomfort!!!

If you haven't already done this, Mys - you need a long heart-to-heart talk with your doctor. Hope you have time to do that at your upcoming appointment.

You can have normal paps and endometriosis at the same time. You might try a google search for "treating painful periods" and see what kind of info comes up. Although other things may be causing your pain, endometriosis can cause a lot of pelvic pain, too, especially before and during your periods. (it's also a leading reason for hysterectomy!)

I'm not a doctor either, but I'd sure want to exhaust all kinds of treatment and medication options before undergoing surgery and then dealing with hormone replacement decisions after that. Are you done having kids? Close to menopause? All things you and your doctor should consider and discuss.

Hope you get some answers soon!

MyManLovesWatches · 1 April 2009, 01:11 PM

Thanks Lisa! I did google it and plan to discuss all the options next week--I AM done with kids and just want some relief...

Lion I agree it's awful---believe me...I hate this....

Not only do you have physical discomfort but you have to put up with guys as well. Who do not know any better!!!

MyManLovesWatches · 1 April 2009, 01:28 PM

I will Lisa--the appt is on the afternoon of the 13th...and Lion--my sweetie knows I am hurting I just dont think he knows how much...

Can't get how I can be online yet be hurting...Ive tried explaining I am bored, hurting, and can't sleep---I trying to take my mind off the pain...

Lion · 1 April 2009, 01:37 PM

As a general rule men are not very sensitive(of course not your man) and never have a clue!!!

away36 · 1 April 2009, 07:34 PM

Mornin' all. Just sitting here sipping my coffee and reflecting on life. Pretty bummed out for the past couple of days. On Monday morning one of my co-workers just didn't wake up. She was only 38 years old. Sure is a stark reminder of the uncertainties life offers at times.

Sorry to hear that Nancy.

I'm bummed out too...for different reasons.

Had next to no sleep last night, William tumbled out of the bed and hit his head on the floor. He screamed the house down (he'd already been restless due to a nightmare which had him shaking in fear earlier). WE stacked up loads of pillows on the side of the bed and the floor and also put two spare quilts on the floor on his side but over he went and he hit the single square inch of bloody floor that wasn't protected. Better get a sleep rail today!!!!!

Must be in a grotty mood today because right now, outside of my window are two motorcycle policemen doing their weekly licence/tax checks. Pulling people over and issuing £60 spot fines for having slightly worn tyres etc...you'd think they had better things to worry about. For some reason it really irks me today!

Hugs, guys... (insert hug smilie here - my smilies won't open)

Jimbits76 · 1 April 2009, 08:20 PM

Seems dumb but since the natasha richardson thing, both Claire and I worry when he hits his head....which he doe quite often the clumsy little bugger!!!!!!

I'm gonna have to get him a helmet!

It's not dumb, just keep an eye on him. Maybe put in a quick call to the ped - I've done that many times. And don't worry, little kids are tough!

Jimbits76 · 1 April 2009, 08:31 PM

You think maybe leave the helmet? For now?

J

Carolina · 1 April 2009, 08:36 PM

No, I wouldn't worry about the helmet. I'd go for the bed rail tomorrow. And put in a call to triage (or whoever is on call, don't know what time it is there) just for back up advice.

Especially if he has a bump now, the helmet may hurt!

Carolina · 1 April 2009, 08:37 PM

I do know it's important to watch for signs of headache.

Jimbits76 · 1 April 2009, 08:43 PM

he's okay....no bumps, he hit his forehead, it left a red mark.

We kept him awake as long as we could to see if there were any after effects.

This morning he was fine, his usual nutty self.

Bed rail is a must though....we need one anyway for when he's officially out of his cot and into a bed!

sounds like he is an attention seeking bugger, does that run in your family?

Don't worry about a few bumps and bruises they are a part of him growing up. If you are worried about head injuries always check for increased pupil dilation. Bet you were dropped on your head more than once

I didn't know this. Thanks, Martin! I know that my FIL used to check my hubby and brother for this during the teen years, but it for different reasons!
