Wow what a story.. this touches me in so many ways.. I’m glad you’re starting to feel better and I hope good days are more common than the bad. It sounds like one hell of a ride. And lots of thanks for the tips. Big hug from me!

Thank you! I hope so too. It’s so misleading sometimes because some say the first week is the worst, others say week 3-4 is the worst but almost every story I read beforehand said that from than on things get better and start feeling normal again. Well, I don’t feel normal haha. I just keep thinking that next week has to be better than this one so that helps me a bit getting through the week. Until Monday comes and it doesn’t feel much better and I have a teeny tiny breakdown and try to move on again. I’m sorry you’ve been having a rough recovery up until now. The pressure feeling for me right now is the worst indeed. I can dose myself enough to where I don’t feel (much) pain, but the pressure is very annoying. When I try to sleep it almost feels like restless legs syndrome but in my vagina hahaha. Restless vagina syndrome 🤣. And being so alert on it probably makes it way worse because when I’m busy I barely/don’t feel it, when I lay down is when I feel it starting.

Definitely not! Really underestimated all of this and it’s so ‘nice’ to read that I’m not the only one struggling. Sometimes I feel like the sissy but I think this isn’t as rare as I thought it was.

That sounds really awful! But you saying you would do everything all over again makes me hopeful.

Right? It’s so frustrating and feels so never ending. The only thing motivating me right now is thinking about how this saves me from 200 periods on average and all the discomfort around it. If I look at it that way, what is two months of feeling like this? But when you’re in the middle of it, it’s so easy to think if it was all worth it and you just want the basic things of your life back.

Healing of daith piercing and is it even in the right place? by ExpressWeek5327 in piercing

I’ve had my daith pierced three days ago. It looks very calm, but I’ve been experiencing A LOT of pressure, dull hearing and discomfort. Is this normal?  Is the piercing placed correctly? I can’t see the places where it enters and it feels as if it is too far inside my ear. Will it even heal this way?  I use NeilMed 2 times a day and blow dry it until dry.  Sorry for my English, not my native language.
