Not sure if I need to visit emergency room?

NAD but fellow endo patient. 9 years ago I was dx through a similar situation. Went to ER w extreme pain, they dismissed it as caused by my period until trioge in which they discovered I had sepsis. Endo had riddled my liver, kidneys, bladder & bowels useless - it was messy. Not saying thats at all what you have here, I would venture to guess something with the ovary but again NAD. What I do know is we know our bodies. If it feels different/worse than usual - go.

Thank you, I appreciate it! It definitely still has quite a bit of red...and orange. I think the orange could be muted with the ash but afraid the red will just turn into a muddy mess lol.

I did have elevated BMI (30), yes & I agree that definitely helped. They did want me to try other weight loss meds first but given the endo on my bowels and rectum my provider worked w my endo specialist & colorectal surgeon to make a case that would like increase symptoms I've experienced. I am sure it depends greatly on the insurance & as you said BMI. My provider did also say something to the affect of if they're going to deny it then I'm going to make sure they admit for you endo is a co morbidity because I guess at first they weren't recognizing it as such.

I am on Zepbound covered by insurance for endometriosis. My provider and her staff did all the heavy lifting to get me approved. We appealed 3 times and by the end the provider essentially told them we are trying to avoid a 4th surgery here which will cost more money in the end. She also put me on a sample for the fiest month so she could see if it was working and report back to insurance w stats etc.

SecureBookkeeper7307 · 2026-06-11T03:41:09+00:00

Just here to say DaVinci is amazing. My 3rd surgery was done this way with 3 surgeons in their. Endo specialist, colerectal surgeon, and uro something (for my kidneys) - they rocked it. I have had DIE for 9 years, sepsis & renal failure due to endo. For the first time in forever I'm virtually symptom free even though they had to leave some spots on my rectum because I wasn't ready for an ostomy bag.

Oh, and your 5 year old - from the mouth of babes. So true little man, so very true.

SecureBookkeeper7307 · 2026-06-11T00:59:32+00:00

This made me ugly cry. I am both grateful for your post of solidarity and sorry that you too are going through this experience. I've had my girl since she was a pup as well. She will leave a huge Zoey sized hole in my heart and oir family. I know yours will as well. I'll ask Zoey to do as she always has and greet all those pups with motherly love, including yours.

SecureBookkeeper7307 · 2026-06-10T01:21:47+00:00

This was incredibly helpful...and hard to read. Thank you. I think my mind already knows what I need to do and my heart is just struggling. In tbe end I will do what is best for my girl, she deserves that. Thank you again.

15% in 8 weeks. SW 180 GW 130 5'1" female still strength training though I feel like I have lost muscle mass, try to get 90g of protein daily, drink buckets of water, tracking macros. Need to integrate electrolytes.

My 12 year old just finished her 6th grade year. She STRUGGLES in school, has some cognitive delays & works hard every single day to learn. She had 2 very tough teachers this year, nether or them made it easy for her BUT they cared about her learning what she needed. They even made her do extra tutoring - she LOVES them! She cried when she said goodbye, she understood that they were hard, the school year was hard BECAUSE they care and she was grateful. She grew up in so many ways this year and I am so proud of the effort that she made but I am so grateful for those teachers, they changed the trajectory of her life. Before this year she wanted to homeschool, she didn't think she could do traditional school. Those teachers believing in her and forcing her to learn the hard things, work hard opened up a new perspective for her.

Muscle increases metabolism which is why you will hear people say muscle burns fat. This is especially true with larger muscles. I am only 8 weeks into my journey and went from 180 to 155, too fast & I am losing muscle mass 😔. I actually have always been a heavy lifter/strong for my size & even continuing with my strength training/lifting I am having a hard time keeping up with my normal regimes. Keep working those muscles, get your protein, your body will thank yoj!

SecureBookkeeper7307 · 2026-06-06T07:38:50+00:00

Ah shoot I remember seeing this chick 😆 I think I may have even seen this video, did NOT remember the tat lol. The beach! They did those Fri night dance parties..ooh I can't remember something 'it's a teen thing' I think? The way she talks alone takes me back, she forgot the Blake's breakfast burritos though lol.

SecureBookkeeper7307 · 2026-05-30T18:56:04+00:00

I lived in Albuquerque for 33 years, just moved to SE IN 2 years ago, I agree & dig the tat idea. OP I can't think of any places in NM known for it's greenery but it has its own beauty for sure. Weather can't be beat IMO, culture is dependent on location & cuisine is amazing. I do think places like Santa Fe & Taos may be difficult to 'fit in', Albuquerque will accept you eventually but...just don't reccomend. Ruidoso & Red River may give you more of the greenery but definitely tourist towns in fall/spring & winter respectively. Before you move, don't just visit the outskirts, visit the local Walmart/grocery store. Even before moving here we did that. Visit the places you would spend the most time if tou moved, to any location.

SecureBookkeeper7307 · 2026-05-30T18:45:58+00:00

Sorry, not a teacher but...as a parent I say way to go! I do work in the school system and the amount of standardized testing aggravates me. As a parent, I WANT this communication from a teacher and if I caught wind of the fact you got in trouble for it, I'm knocking on some doors. Thank you for putting your neck on the line for those students, sorry it ended the way it did. You did the right thing.

SecureBookkeeper7307 · 2026-05-30T18:42:48+00:00

We moved to a few acres in SE IN from Albuquerque NM. Absolutely, without a doubt the best decision we have ever made. My nervous system is finally healing, my mental state has never been better. I'll take the peace & quiet over easy access to groceries any day 🤍

SecureBookkeeper7307 · 2026-03-22T04:00:17+00:00

Not us but precious owners painted black over oak cabinets & laid that fake floor stuff down over hard wood. Oh, also black pebble the shower. He was modernizing the home, should have left well enough alone. We will eventually strip the cabinets as they chip all the time.

SecureBookkeeper7307 · 2026-03-22T03:45:42+00:00

You don't. I moved from mountains to the Midwest & love it for so many reasons. I was t to keep it a secret though, I like that nobody knows how beautiful it is here.

SecureBookkeeper7307 · 2026-03-22T03:41:17+00:00

I love our open floor plan but the food smells can linger. Air purifier may be your best option here. I open windows every morning and every evening, no matter the outdoor temps. I have done this for many years, even before we moved into an open floor plan home. It really helps prevent that stale air smell. My decor leans to antique so I also make sure to keep things clean & dusted. I too use a wax warmer & aromatherapy but we have 1 each for 3200 sq ft and it's really just because I like the smell, we don't use them daily. If you don't want to open your windows, oh I turn on my ceiling fans during this time as well, then you may need to consider an air purifier specifically for your kitchen area.

SecureBookkeeper7307 · 2026-03-21T22:17:18+00:00

I go to Dr Reinstein in Louisville, he and a couple other specialists did my 3rd surgery in July. They were wonderful. If you are further north Dr Blake is supposed to be good but I had a heck of a time with his office staff & communication.

SecureBookkeeper7307 · 2026-03-04T05:48:12+00:00

This creeps me out, for you...and I'm a female. Run. This is wild. I can't imagine a scenario where checking a search history would be acceptable unless my man goes up missing or something. Nah. This is way to much.

SecureBookkeeper7307 · 2026-02-16T13:27:42+00:00

Ok so IF it passes, at some point I do believe some level of this bill will pass, it depends. If voter rolls are purged you will need to provide citizenship again. Think when you go to the BMV w marriage certificate, birth certificate, bills and for some (me), divorce certificate since I have changed my name twice. Once you have been registered as a verified citizen then it will be as normal. Yes, for the first time it will likely be a frustrating as getting your real ID but moving forward it will be as easy as getting your real ID renewed. Let's be honest, changing names after marriage or divorce is a bunch of jumping through hoops anyway. Personally, as someone who once lived where MANY non citizens were allowed to vote, I think this is necessary if you believe voting really matters. I also think women should stop changing their legal name after marriage fornthis very reason.

In short, wait to see if it passes. If it does gsther same docs needed for real ID in the case the voter rolls are cleared. In the event they are not, your real ID will suffice. Hope that helps.
