Ah, got my PERIOD. FUCKING FINALLY.
Except it is like, a period and a half. Literally. It hurts like HELL and is extra gross. Lumpy & clotted and stuff. Because you wanted to know that.
Don't EVER miss a period. Hopefully this was just some weird random fluke that will never happen again. My body has been "off" for a whole month and before today I was begging to get some relief in the form of an18 day late period. I ate my words this morning, however.
Last Friday the Dr. prescribed me some Tramadol for the crazy abdominal cramps I was having. I held off on taking it in case I was pregnant (as Tramadol destroys fetuses in rodent studies)... but given the insanity that is happening in my uterus today... I opted to pop one of the pain pills. Not long after taking it I got dizzy and nauseas. I went to the bathroom and leaned on the toilet. The next thing I know, my head is bouncing off the floor. WTF? I fainted. I was hot in the face and my hearing was jacked up. I wobbled my way to the living room and wasn't sure what the heck happened. It took me a minute to remember taking the pill, and to also remember how I ended up in the bathroom in the first place. Talk about scary. I was ready to call 911... which, thank God, never happened. I've been busying my brain for the last 2 hours because now I'm afraid to go to sleep. I can't tell if my brain feels fuzzy because I'm just crazy-tired, or if the Tramadol is waiting to kill me in my sleep. Needless to say, that crap is NEVER going in my body again. (Granted, my uterus is VERY happy right now... which will likely wear off before morning. Sigh.)
What a day. Tomorrow I see the Dr. again at lunchtime, and have a special wine-tasting/acoustic concert at night. Should be fun! Too bad I'm going alone :( Man, I really need some friends to do stuff with in Colorado. I'm tired of being lonely all the time, dammit.
