Just looking for support with symptoms

[winegirl]

Just to say that I have pain in my ovary and it is due to PCOS, this was diagnosed by an internal ultrasound and is nothing serious at all. Best thing us def to get that ultrasound done as it really does put your mind at rest!

Damn PNI

Hi

Thanks - that's ever so reassuring. I have had an ultrasound and it was all normal and the doctor is really sending me to the gynaecologist for my peace of mind - so on a good day I can keep it in perspective like that! I too had quite a bit of illness during my pregnancy - I get hyperemisis (excessive morning sickness) so was in hospital early on, which did make me depressed in itself as I couldn't look after my 3 year old very well. I think you are absolutely right - all these factors combine to contribute to PNI.

Goodness - I thought having babies is what we're supposed to do - however did it become so complicated?!!

Hi Nicolad

If you have already had the ultrasound and that was fine then i think it is safe to say you have nothing to worry about and the damn PNI is screwing with your head. Did you have the internal ultrasound by the way? (not pleaseant as I remember!)

Hi Winegirl

Yes - internal and not that pleasant! I can't wait for the time when my head stays normal all the time - I think I am generally getting less panicky about things, but a few times a day I still go down that 'oh my God' route of worrying about my health. I think though the medication is starting to make those times shorter and less frequent..I think anyway.

That great Nicolad! And thats exactly what the meds should do, gradually make these times less frequent until one day they vanish completely.

Glad you are starting to look up a bit hun x

Hi all

Just having another wobbly day today - possibly because I'm tired, but also worrying about this pain again. I am a bit concerned that I have a slight increase in discharge with it (nice subject!) and of course am worrying about all of that now - although I'm not sure if really there is much of an increase because I never really monitored it before all this paranoia! I think it doesn't help that I've just spoken to someone at work who's not well at the moment - and of course once again I'm worrying about my own health more again...

I am going to the docs for a repeat prescription of my meds on Friday, so will talk over my concerns once again.

Hi Nicolad

I have found that being tired DEFINATLEY makes me feel worse babes. I hope your day picks up for you x

Good luck with the dr on Friday, let us know how it goes x

Hi Winegirls

Thanks - will let you know. I get so frustrated when I start to feel like this again - like I'm getting far, and then come right back again. I feel like the medication has got me to a certain point that is much better than where I was, but now I've got another level to go. Does that mean I will have to up my dose, seeing as I've been on them two months now?

I wish I could switch my mind off sometimes. It doesn't help that I keep typing things into the Internet and of course all the worst things come up to do with ovary problems, bowel problems etc. How do I stop myself looking these things up??!!

Hi Nicolad

I refuse to google my symptoms anymore. You can just come up with a whole host of things to stress about. But I know its tough to resist.

I am having the odd good day but more bad than good so am having my dose of meds uped until i reacha theraputic level. But evryone is different so you should def go back to your gp/cpn to talk about it.

Hi Nicola,

Yes, I refuse to google symptoms anymore too - and it is difficult!
I try to distract myself if I can, but I know it's not easyx

Hopefulx
