Well, I've a history of menorrhagia, and severe anemia, so this is the first time in a year that I've been told that I don't have to come back until next year, so I'm celebrating. kinda.

I have un-diagnosed menstrual issues that I am seeing if the birth control will help with. Like periods that last a month and are so heavy that nothing can stem the tide on some days. All my medical chart says about it is "irregular heavy periods"

[Den]

Menorrhagia is unusual uterine bleeding, which pretty much describes what you're dealing with, Damies. The birth control should help with that, and if it doesn't, you do have a few other options, including a higher dose, or a different form of birth control, such as an IUD.

I'd be happy tp have the thing ripped out but at almost 30 I still get the "You might want kids later soooo no" reaction.

Ugh. I hear you. I'm not much older than you, and I've been told pretty much the exact same thing. Except, no, I knew in my early 20s that I didn't want kids. My parents know they won't get grandkids out of me, and it's my *bleeping* body. Plus, my boyfriend doesn't want kids, either.

In crafting news, I have to go back to the church that caught on fire and burned down on Monday and get smaller brick pieces for my gift of a shadowbox with a brick piece inside it for my dad (he was baptized at that church).

Sounds like an interesting trip, pretty unique month of October already haha.

It's just across town, so I won't be gone too long. I have an idea for how I want the shadowbox to look...

Like pandora's box concept?

[Den]

naw. more like a box with a black inside, the brick piece mounted with some information about the piece below, and the box "front" being a frame with glass.

ETA: Something like this.

[Scythe]

Ah gotcha, that sounds very aesthetically pleasing. A brick within a crafted brick.

I almost feel lucky to be sterile so people won't.....oh wait, they still offered to re-test me when I went in to inquire about my surgery.

So sorry Daimes and Den, wish doctors would be more open to what the patient says and wants.
