so today i had a health scare. my monthly is now more than 2 weeks late..... and i knew this was not going to end well.... i was sitting at work and around 9 my right side just started to hurt...... like someone was pulling my right ovary over my right hip and there was weights on either side. only those weights were uneven. i tried to stay at work but by 11am it was very clear i had a very short time to get home. so i left on un-planned time. i remember getting into my car, and thinking that the pain was not going away...... i have a vague memory of driving and screaming at the slow driver in front of me who was going 25 mph in 45. and i remember thinking that if i did not get home soon i would fade out..... with sheer will power i made it home... i called scott and told him i was home.... after trying to find a comfortable spot downstairs i finally managed to crawl upstairs....... i must have laid down on my bed and then i fell into the comforting darkness......
about an 2 hrs later i woke up to my husbands friend frantically banging on our front door screaming out my name.....not sure at all how long he had been doing that.... i had no idea how long i had laid there.. or how i go to my bed... my last memory is telling scott i was home....
i should disclose i have had overian cysts 3 times before.... maybe 4.... 3 times they have exploded and the pain was so severe that i was rushed to the hospital because i was crawled up into a ball and could not move for more than three hours..... i spent about 6 hrs in our local hospital but the doctors could not figure out what it was even after running every single test they could think of... only a year later did another doctor in another country figure out what was wrong with me... ok so at least there was a name and i was not going crazy...............
so now almost 16 years later, the same pain the same fear.... and really really scary reminder......
