On the one hand, my body is throwing a great big tantrum about not having dienogest and not being able to bleed about it. Big feelings. Big struggle to not live off Nutella.

On the other, temperatures feel more or less normal. I slept without waking up soaked in sweat. My chest isn't constantly aching with how hard my heart is beating. My pulse hasn't been over 100 all day, even after having caffeine (my blood pressure disliked that move slightly).

I thought I was imagining things.

I was not imagining things.

I can wear sweatpants and hoodies and, in a few days, probably, move without feeling like my heart is gonna explode.

#chronic illness #chronic pain #endometriosis #pcos #hypertension scare #probably still smart to hit up the cardiologist #I'm already dreading the talk to the doctor #“why do these readings look different to ours?”#because for the last four years your coworker suggested any issue I came in with was all in my head #because I am never informed what I am supposed to do or not do for the tests you need #because I have had TWO correct medication prescriptions in the last five years #because I am so very very tired of routine tests coming back for yet another new condition #because if you decide to change anything about my meds I'm playing side effect roulette AGAIN
