You Know...

...you have extreme symptoms when you go through them with your consultant and he stops you, checks he's heard you right and when you confirm he has his response is "Jesus."

Was running through my meds with the consultant at the hospital when he asked about the mefenamic acid.  I told him it's for my periods and what they were like before I started it.

Jesus is probably about right, come to think of it.  They were pretty bad (skipping a month and then having a heavy 17 day long period was my worst ever) looking back.  Mefenamic Acid is working well though to keep the bleeding at slightly more normal levels.

The hospital appointment went well I think... but that's the topic for another blog entry.

Oh Emma, although 'Jesus' wasn't the word that came to my mind when I read 'heavy 17 day long period'. The words 'ouch' and 'oi vey' were audibly spoken upon reading it.

I hope everything gets sorted, so you don't have to deal with that long of a period.
