My Body....

And I are about to duke it out and I'm not really sure which one of us is going to win.
This may be a little too much TMI for some people reading this so take that as you warning.
Last October I have a lovely case of vaginitis and I have no idea where in the freaking world it came from. I had never had anything like that and in the beginning I assumed it was a yeast infection, again, something I had never had before. A month later I finally went to the doctor and Dr. Yo diagnosed with me non-specific vaginitis and gave me some things to clear it up which did.
Moving onto December things were fine. One morning, about a week before Christmas Mark called me around 4:45 in the morning letting me know he had been in a car accident and needed me to find him a hospital because he "could see his bone" in his hand. I jumped out of bed to grab my computer to find him a hospital and I felt this rush of fluid down my leg. Seeing as my husband was on the side of the road and in need of a hospital I didn't have time to worry about what the rush was. After finally finding him a hospital, (thank god he was only about a mile down the road from one) I went to the bathroom to get ready and rush out to be with him and discovered it was bright red blood. Thinking to myself, that was very strange since I had just gotten off my time of the month about a week prior.
This would be the start to over a year of unusual period cycles for me. Since December, I probably have on average two/three "periods" a month that last from 3 days to a week. Talk about annoying. You think aunt flow is bad for a few days out of the month, try being on aunt flow for weeks at a time for a year.
In October, before I moved to PA, I finally broke down and went to my Dr. She said that I probably had a hormone imbalance so she changed my birth control and said that if things were not better in three months she would have to see me again and do a sonogram and some other test.
Well October was horrible. I was on my period almost all month. I was so discouraged I almost just quit taking the pills all together. November went great. I had a normal cycle and was getting positive because I thought maybe the new pills had done the trick. Well that's what I get for getting positive.
Yesterday aunt flow reared her ugly face just one week later after visiting me. I can not begin to express how frustrated I am with myself and my body that it is doing this to me. Before I had that crappy vaginitis I was as regular as the sun. I could tell you almost up to the hour that I would start on a given day. Now, god only knows.
When I told Mark last night what was going on he looked so disappointed. I guess he knows that since my body has decided to be screwy that making a baby might be very difficult. I am trying to stay positive but I know you can't make a baby if you are on your period all the time.
I have made an appointment to go see my Dr. on the 30th while I am back in Texas. It's going to be a long couple of weeks waiting for the appointment. I just hope that it's just a hormone imbalance and things will be okay.
I must say though, after I am off the pill, I will never go back on it.
Have a great day!
