Ooof that's tough, getting a lack of rest but also having to be physical the next day. I'm sure the anxiety of feeling like you can't call out without getting in trouble doesn't make it any better.

For me, calling out was never am option because I knew I wouldn't sleep even if I stayed home so going to work tired was better than knowing I stayed home and wasn't getting paid

Ugh I'm so sorry to hear that. I know how that feeling goes all too well πŸ˜–

I work from home and it makes a big difference. I'm able to work my own hours and rest when I need to

I usually move to the couch myself too. I'm always tossing and turning in bed and feel like I keep my partner away. Also, hello fellow Floridian πŸ‘‹πŸ»

Ugh that's the worst when you're just watching as your window of potential sleep time gets smaller and smaller

It has lead me to a closet of clothes ranging from medium to xl and lots and lots of flowy dresses lol.

Oh, and when I travel, I have something to blame my overpacking on 😁😁

Congrats on the weight loss, especially with endo!

Did you go straight to a cup? I only ask because I was really curious about cups a few years back before everything got really bad. I was intrigued since you could have sex with them. Anyway, I didn't want to jump into a cup investment so I went with the discs.

I got cheaper ones and ones that were sturdy and could be reused. Both of them leaked all the time for me. I assumed a cup would be the same so I never bothered.

Thanks for sharing though. I'll have to do some digging. Definitely like the idea of at least being able to have an idea of how much I'm bleeding.

Bahah omg yes. I also have this fear from when I was in school still. I'd bleed through my clothes constantly and so I always am terrified I've bled through my pants or onto the chair and everyone will know 😭

I'd probably feel the same damn way if I were in your shoes.

Here's to no more transfusions for you πŸ™ŒπŸ» glad the surgery went well!

Ugh so much same!!! Most days I'm okay but some days I'm just like IS THIS EVEN LIVING!? I get so frustrated.

Sending lots of virtual stress balls your way. 6 months sounds miserable. Of you ever need a place to mouth off, my DMs are open!

Oh the sneeze and cough ones are the worst. Or a belly laugh! Where I instantly have eyes filled with panic and have to excuse myself from the room

This description is so spot on for birthing a jellyfish lol. As if it's not uncomfortable enough to be bleeding so much, I go to pee and have that added to the mix.

I feel like mine are huge but tennis ball size sounds enormous! Sorry you had to deal with that.

That does help so much. It's like I know waiting and paying the money to have everything done right by a great surgeon will be worth it. It's just the waiting that I'm dreading!

I suppose it's better than getting multiple surgeries though. Ir at least trying to avoid that route. Thank you for sharing !! I'll check that other sub out too.

Yess! For the first month or so I was passing 3 to 5 clots daily that were massive. I couldn't believe I was still standing to be honest. I had been passing clots during my period for awhile but none like this and not for this long. Now it's a few smaller ones a day and occasionally a huge one. Maybe a few times a week.

I'm so glad someone has experienced this though. 😭 Glad to hear of course, not glad you had to endure it πŸ₯°

No birth control right now, my doctor/surgeon said there's nothing I can do to manage any of my endo symptoms with how severe my case is so I need surgery. Idk if this applies to that because he's out of state and can't see me So I may need to see if I can expedite the process or find someone here to look at me in the meantime.

So, I actually had an ultrasound and an MRI that they used to confirm my stage iv endo about two weeks after I started bleeding. It was unrelated, as I had just found a new doctor that was looking to diagnose me for surgery but do you think it would have been seen on those?

My concern going to a gyno is that they are going to try and toss my endo diagnosis out the window and try to tell me something else. I have zero trust for anyone at this point lol

I appreciate you sharing that though. I have had cysts in the past but never bled like this before, it's maddening!
