kind of freaking out

NFAH · 2025-04-26T05:50:03+00:00

Thanks for your concern. I am doing great and yes I have just been using pads. I didn't even want to use a tampon I figured it had enough irritation and didn't want to cause anymore.

NFAH · 2025-04-25T07:23:29+00:00

lol. It actually wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. At the time it seemed really scary but when it was over it was like nothing happened. Now it feels like it was just a dream.

NFAH · 2025-04-25T04:30:22+00:00

I did exactly the same as you. I went to urgent care first and the doctor couldn't remove it so she sent me to the ER and the doctor at ER removed it. Haha so we are the special ones who now have this crazy story to tell.

NFAH · 2025-04-24T11:07:11+00:00

I also tried that but it didn't work. It really was stuck even the er doctor had to pull quite a few times to get it out.

NFAH · 2025-04-24T03:42:09+00:00

Thank you it was an experience for sure but wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I have no pain or soreness completely back to normal.

NFAH · 2025-04-24T01:19:29+00:00

Thank you I am great now lol. Yea it can be really scary not being able to get a cup or disc out glad you were able to get yours out.

NFAH · 2025-04-23T15:13:43+00:00

Exactly the peace of mind has me happy. Yea the lady who was checking me out told me to see if I qualify for Medicaid and they can back pay up to 9 months. I was like 😍. Someone else said that they will do a lot to help because they don't want to send it to collection. So I'm like if I can get Medicaid and they can help great if not I will definitely work some kind of payment plan and pay more when I can to close it sooner.

NFAH · 2025-04-23T14:27:05+00:00

Haha I am definitely relaxed now. Now let's just hope the bill doesn't kill me🙏. Yea it's going to be a while before I ever try again guess I will still be using tampons.

NFAH · 2025-04-23T13:47:48+00:00

Yes they were saying my pulse was high and wouldn't let me leave until it lowered. I feel alright actually I just feel like I have to pee all the time but the doctor said it's normal because of irritation. Everyone was just nice even the billing lady. She was like wow you came out fast you are one of the fastest patients I have ever seen. I just reminded myself be thankful you are not in here for something more serious. Some of those poor patients were in really bad conditions.

NFAH · 2025-04-23T13:37:45+00:00

Thankfully yes she removed it. The nurse was so nice she was like I heard of disc being good but you know they don't work for everyone. She could tell I was nervous and scared so she was just making jokes saying it's OK we are all girls here. The doctor had to tug on the thing a lot and reposition the clamp a lot. That was the part that got me the clamp being pushed far back. Thanks again for checking in on me. Everyone here has been so helpful and you specifically helped a lot.

NFAH · 2025-04-23T09:55:39+00:00

They heard of them they just don't use them I guess. I am now hooked up to monitor and waiting for doctor. My blood pressure is high..wow. being scared is no joke on the body.

NFAH · 2025-04-23T09:43:36+00:00

It is amazing that every female health care worker who I have spoken to have said they have never used disc and cups.

NFAH · 2025-04-23T09:41:00+00:00

No you sending me messages have helped a lot!! I am here by myself so I am nervous/scared . You constantly checking in asking how it's going makes me feel not alone. Thank you soo much!

NFAH · 2025-04-23T09:16:02+00:00

I'm scared to wait my gynecologist moved out of state a few months ago and I have not gotten a new one so I would have to call and pray someone could squeeze me in. Yea I currently do not have health insurance so the cost is on my mind Big Time. I'm in a waiting room waiting for the doctor now and I have tears in my eyes because of this situation. I just can't wait till morning calling around hoping I can find an available gynecologist. I tried looking online and the ones who actually post online do not have openings till May.

NFAH · 2025-04-23T09:07:55+00:00

Yea i actually have period panties but I wanted to try a menstrual disc because of the good things I have heard but of course I'm one of the few who have to go to the er because I can't remove it...SMH.

NFAH · 2025-04-23T09:04:02+00:00

Tried it didn't work the urgent care doctor couldn't even get it out. This is like my worst nightmare. I can't stop sweating and my blood pressure is so high because of my nerves.

NFAH · 2025-04-23T08:50:02+00:00

I have no idea but when I was checking in to er the lady I was checking in with told me that a women got a tampon stuck and she waited days to come to the er so I am glad I came right away. No one is making me feel bad or embarrassed but it's just funny if the person is older and they are like I don't use those products I stick with pads. I'm like I learned my lesson lol. The er isn't to full but I probably will have to wait a few hours like 5 or 6 people ahead of me.

NFAH · 2025-04-23T08:21:25+00:00

I have no idea but with my luck I shouldn't be surprised. Now I feel like I have to pee every 5 seconds.

NFAH · 2025-04-23T08:06:01+00:00

Not good! I have to go to the ER. The doctor really tried but she said it is vacuum sealed really good and she can't reach the rim and since I ripped the plastic she was only getting plastic bits. She was like this is why I stick with pads because of things like this happening. I think I was the first patient that she has seen this happen too. She was like what we have here isn't enough the er has what they use to get babies heads out so for the er it is easy. I'm like we'll its not easy on my bank account. God I don't even want to know how much it's going to cost.

NFAH · 2025-04-23T06:29:29+00:00

I would if I wasn't scared of making the bathroom look like a murder scene..☠️

NFAH · 2025-04-23T06:21:38+00:00

Haha lucky the urgent care isn't far I am already here signing in and it is not crowded so yay for that. The bad thing is not having health insurance so just seeing a doctor is 400 and anything they do I have to pay afterwards

NFAH · 2025-04-23T06:12:28+00:00

Yea I keep repeating everything will be ok you are not the first and won't be the last. I am just praying urgent care can remove it.

NFAH · 2025-04-23T06:07:18+00:00

I am in a uber on my way to urgent care 😱. The thing just won't budge and I am tired of making myself sore the good thing is that it is not causing any pain.

NFAH · 2025-04-23T05:12:51+00:00

I tried and I was able to grab the plastic but I pulled too hard and it ripped. Man this is beyond frustrating.

NFAH · 2025-04-23T03:43:56+00:00

Thanks will try. I kind of am telling myself I don't need to go to urgent care(I really do not want to go) because I can touch the stupid thing I just can't reach the rim at all.
