So yesterday I had some more pretty bad pains on my left side. Always my left side. I was even too dizzy and out of it to go on our daily walk. I felt better as the day went on, though. I had more peak-type mucus, and this morning my temp went up slightly, but not a huge spike. My mood is weird, changing constantly. One minute I'm crying, feel depressed and sorry for myself and the next I am furiously cleaning. That's not like me (the cleaning part, at least).
Oh, and I finished my adoption reference letter I had to write for friends last night at 2:30 a.m. I just felt like doing it right then.
Right now I'm in a boring mood, so I will end this post. Hopefully I'll have something more interesting to say later.

I usually get my "O" pains on the left, too. Never made sense to me until after my Lap, when Dr. Stegman mentioned that I had a lot of sticky endometriosis around my left ovary, causing it to stick in one place. But even now after the surgery, I still seem to get pains on the left around ovulation... maybe it's referred pain?? Don't know.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I think I'm about to O soon, as well. I've yet to take an opk today (I use them as back-ups), but yesterday's was ALMOST +. So I'll probably O tomorrow. Unfortunately that means probably no acupuncture treatment this time for O. Stupid weekend.
Maybe all that excess cleaning is an early stage of nesting :) Maybe you're about to catch that egg!!
Ya, I hadn't thought about that, but my left ovary was the really bad one too. It was like 5 times the normal size. It's all fixed up now, but perhaps it is still healing (it's been six months, is that crazy to assume it's still getting back to normal?)
ReplyDeleteHope (that's what I'm going to call you so that I don't have to type out allyouwhohope), not crazy to assume ongoing recovery after six months. Up to a year could be needed, though. Just to lend balance, even with healthy ovaries, a lot of women feel that stitch or pain depending on which ovary is letting loose that month. So it could be entirely normal, too.
ReplyDeleteI wanted to comment about your visiting my blog. It's not for the faint-hearted. I'm old (as in old enough to be your mom), and I am very outspoken at times, so it might not be the best place for you to hang out while you are suffering. Having said that, I will say that I too have suffered a lot, though not the same ways as you; and I do share your deep faith and hope.
I can't say what has kept me coming back to your blog, but as long as I do, I'll keep you in my prayers and say hello now and then. Please don't feel obligated to read mine unless you want to. I hate to just lurk and never say hello.
