PCOS

Well I went to see the gyne specialist and the bad news is that they wont do anything permanent to stop me from bleeding and the good news is that, there is no good news. I have PCOS which stands for Poly-Cystic Ovarian Syndrome and it's related to the reason why I have been bleeding abnormally. So, yeah that's the situation. So, the only way to treat this is to start losing weight so that the hormones in my body, regulate themselves. I wish that I didn't have to deal with so many illnesses, but I do. So, now I'm going to try to lose at least 10lbs a month and see what that does for my health. Hopefully it will improve, significantly. I am thinking about going back to the Chris Powell diet and seeing if that helps. It's going to be hard because I love food and I love to eat. Lord, Help me!

Blood Loss

So... Yeah. Well the bleeding didn't completely stop. I kept bleeding, but not as bad. I stopped taking the birth control pills after having to go to the ER because I thought I might have blood clots because of the pills. So, my health declined a lot. My heart was racing and I felt like I couldn't get oxygen in my lungs. So my blood was very low, but not low enough for them to want to give me any blood. So after spending a night in the hospital, they finally decided to start some blood transfusions. They gave me 2 pints of blood and that was it. I was probed and prodded and tested for everything. Now I have to follow up with a gyne for something to do about the bleeding since pills is definitely out of the question. I am just so tired of dealing with this. I want a permanent solution. I really hope it happens. I have to get back on track with my weight-loss and with life.
