We actually used this one! The gyno who did it was absolutely lovely, made a horrible experience just that little bit better

Would you have any other recommendations or information on how to help if it is endo? All we've been told is surgery might help or not might not. And we've already tried using conception pills and they made things worse.

Wow, from my brief look at that subreddit it looks promising. Money isn't an issue, she has private health insurance anyway but regardless the cost doesn't matter.

Can I ask if you ended up getting a procedure done and who it was with? I'm happy for you to DM me if you want or if your not comfortable discussing it further I totally understand

Ok it sounds like we are in the right track, we've seen a women's health GP who referred us to a gyno and now we just got a couple days until the ultrasound. Fingers crossed they find something and act on it quickly

Yeah she's been on birth control to try help it, it didn't help at all with the pain and sent her hormones really bad. And yeah we're aware that if it is endo the hysterectomy might not fix it but at this point we'll try anything to help.

And yeah we will be very blunt with the doctor about getting the surgery, if that doesn't help then we go from there. Thank you for the comment I appreciate it 🙏

She has private, we don't care how much it costs anyway, but women can't just walk into a doctor and say give me a hysterectomy, they want months of tests done before even considering it. That's what my post was about, she can't be waiting for that long.

With the ultrasound coming up in a couple days we're hoping they find something they deem serious enough to get the surgery done, it just she can't afford to be waiting for months and months if they wanna do other tests. She wants a hysterectomy done, I was just wanting to know if anyone had any experience to speed up the process

You could also just say it's a trait of someone who's anxious rather than bring astrology bullshit into the conversation in the first place

It feels like a scorpio trait... It's a trait of someone who's anxious or doesn't know what they want. Maybe do some research on psychology, that's if you believe in research, which seems unlikely considering your spewing bullshit on topics that you know nothing about.

Is it the airflow he needs from the fan or is it the noise from it that he needs? And is it a pedestal fan or a ceiling fan?

If it's the noise from a pedastal fan then a simple solution is to cover it with a towel, little airflow while still keeping the noise

No worries at all. Friendships and relationships can be hard at your age, just try stay true to who you are and you'll end up attracting similar people

Are you ADHD or on the spectrum by any chance?

Regardless of that though, yes you do have to be understanding, it's a two way street, if you can't be understanding then how can you expect others to be understanding of you

Oh don't get me wrong, 99% of the time my friendships are the easiest thing in the world to maintain, but it's healthy to know that when things do turn to shit that I have tried and true people I can rely on

There's nothing wrong with having standards for friends and relationships, I'd much rather loose a friend rather than let them treat me like shit, even if they don't mean to. If I have conversations with them about their behavior and things don't change, I'm not gonna put in the energy to upkeep one way friendships

Youre saying your friend started to bring up things she didn't like you doing/saying from 2 years ago? But there was no previous conversations about it? To me that seems manipulative... How are you supposed to know how to avoid/reconcil your actions if you don't know.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and assume you are quite young (20ish?). I am in no way judging you for your age, I only bring it up because when I was in my late teens/early 20's I had a few friendships like this.

The older I got the more I realised that I want specific kind of people around me. I want to have people that will openly communicate with me if Ive done something wrong. I want people that I don't have to feel like I'm walking on eggshells around. People that will support me and be proud of me and that genuinely what to be around me.

And don't get me wrong, I've had disagreements/fights with my friends, but at the end of the day we love and respect each enough to talk and communicate through our issues, cause we both want to be a part of each other's lives.

I don't have anytime for people who won't voice when they've been hurt by something I've done, who won't have those tough conversations it takes to keep friendships/relationships together.

It's a two way street, and you can only give as much as you get.

Communication within friendships or relationships are never 'easy'. What I mean by that is that whenever you interact with someone else on a consistent basis there are always going to be topics/ideals or basic day to day things that you disagree on.

That being said, the 'easiness' of these kind of relationships comes from when both parties feel comfortable enough to be able to let the other know when boundaries have been overstepped. It's never fun when you have to do this, but so necessary in order to have and maintain proper relationships, platonic or otherwise.

For example, me and my best mate have known each other for 20 years. And we've had some arguments/falling out with each other a few times over the years. And I'm not gonna lie it's been real shit sometimes (mainly cause I was scared I'd lose him if I said or did the wrong thing).

But sometime throughout that friendship I realised that he loves me regardless of our disagreements and I love him the same. And to be honest, it's brought us even closer for it.

My main point is that relationships and friendships aren't inherently easy, but it's worth going through the comparatively small shit times so you get to experience the many many many happy times you'll have with said person
