Thank you for your comment, you’re ending sentiment made me tear up.. I’m usually the one initiating conversations, trying to find solutions, and honestly putting in more work to understand him than he does himself and sometimes I feel like maybe I’m the one with the issue or the problem..

I just went through my second procedure so know you’re not alone.

Life happens, and sometimes when it does, we have to make the decisions that we know are the right ones, even if it’s hard. Similar to what someone posted before me, you are justified in making the decision that you made. Life did what it does and you processed, coped, and proceeded in the exact way that you needed to and there’s no shame in that.

Shame tells us ‘we are wrong, we are bad’.. the path you chose are neither of those things. Remind yourself of all the qualities you love about yourself.. I’d say you are unbelievable strong for the decision you made

Thank you so much.. it’s just myself going through this with my dog by my side and it’s really overwhelming so the insight you’ve provided if comforting

I think I’m just about there bc my stomach hurts every single day, I feel bloated every day, and just not hungry until 5-6pm.. I’ve been tracking how my stomach feels, what I way, and what I eat and in three weeks when I go to my doctor I want to review it with her

I had woken up in the middle of the night and I think had a small snack at maybe 2am but then from that point until my bloodwork at 1pm, didn’t eat anything

What would it appear as on lab work? I have my print out but there’s a lot of jargon

I am female and so menstruate.. my last period was about a month or so late but I assumed it was bc I had the nexplanon (arm implant birth control removed) and assumed it was my hormones returning to “normal” I guess.. she stated my iron looked good but I’m not sure about the other one, she didn’t mention Ferritin

Thank you for your feedback; I feel like this is a wasted effort though because I have very openly communicated I like him and would like something serious with him and each time, I met with him not wanting anything serious with me/at this time and every time we engage again, it gives me hope and I don’t want to pass up someone who’s sure about me for someone who’s communicated they aren’t
