So much pain going through at once for 5 ocnsecutive days. Apparently the contraceptives was a form of pain control. My menses arrived 4 days prior to my appointment with my doctor, and that was the day he decided to jab me with contraceptives. Sad... No one expected it to arrive exactly on the 29th day. I hardly have an ordinary 28 day cycle. It usually runs within a range of 28-33 days. Every cycle was different. I'm getting my next jab next month.
Prior to my surgery, my doctor asked me to look up on endometriosis, which I didn't. I thought that it was just a name of how my ovarian cyst grew up to that monstrous size. When I went to revisit my doctor on Monday, the day I got my jab, he was showing me the pictures he took of my uterus, i think. There was this one black spot and a part that looks like a swollen ulcer. He explained that these nerves on my uterus were suppressed by my big cyst, so I wasn't able to feel the pain. Now that the cyst is gone, I could feel it. I was officially diagnosed with endometriosis. No yay, but ouch.
There's no known cure for endometriosis uptil today. Most patients just live with pain management and hormone treatment to control the pain. I'm now here, feeling slightly better and writing my blog with my ipad. My assignments are crazily overdue, but I just can't manage with my pain. Pain killers aren't killing my pain.
These painful days on bed, I spent time searching for support groups. Seeing others sharing their experience allowed me to kinda foresee what are my next options. It's both scary and comforting. Mixed feelings.
